Glad you were satisfied with the responses. Welcome to the M$ free
world.

However, Please do not post to this mailing list in HTML.  

Your email is multipart. The first is plain text, the other is HTML and
bloats the email as follows.

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">Ok,<?xml:namespace prefix

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">(There were multiple

For a high volume mailing list this is a major waste of bandwidth and
storage space.
