Yes Chuck, which was the reason for my query since

Update site!

Yes, that plan of action has been working for me
once I finally learned it and as for the MSKB,
that has a recent discovery for me and I plan to
be doing some cruising there as well from now on!
I do have a small question about the MSKB though
since you mentioned it, so far, every time I type
in a question/problem, it always give me 200 hits
and I was wondering if there was a way to avoid
the mass of confusion and have it cut right to the
chase and give me the one or three hits that are
somewhere within the 200 hits, which takes a long
time to sift through to find the one or three
hits, which most of the time for me has been only
one hit and I usually find it on the last page of
individual 25 hit pages, if you know what I mean!
