HI, Thanks for the confirmation. I'll have another play around with it in the morning. The headache which has been plaguing me all day just won't go away so I think some fresh air is in order. I'll post back on any success with this. Thanks again for your time. _______________________________________ Have a pleasant day, Kind Regards and Best Wishes, Hussein.
