Thanks James...I will check it out ....  Cynn is pretty computer savvy
so I trust her to know what she is telling me ... If we pass on
information that anyone one of you feel is wrong ... please excuse us! 
We are only trying to help.  At least it is not email arguing over some

wouldn't know how or where to go about that.  So I appreciate your
expert advise on this.
