Reinventing the wheel is fine; you've just got to remember to reinvent the
break as well.

Reinvent The wheel? I'd never heard that expression before, Alison. Where'd

Hello, Kevin and Dave,

frustrations of those who can't make computers do things in the way that
some can. I wonder whether Anabel is just trying not to reinvent the wheel. 
smiles. I must point out that fellas like you two are a godsend on a list
like this, and I'm sure in time I'll be back myself for more of your trusted
and tested advice. Keep it up boys and thank you.

Kind Regards,
Alison.
