Hi, Hope. We've all been there at one point or another, and if we're honest,
I think we can all say we still are. You never stop learning until you die.
*smile* I know I don't know all there is to know about scanning and
validating and never will. I'm always open to others' suggestions, though,
and I think, as long as that's the case, you're doing OK. *smile* Take care.

Hi Pat!
You have a right to comment even though you are not a volunteer. Your
opinion counts. I am so knew at this validating and trying to scan for
others to read that I am some what clumsy. I am also not technical savvy.
However, thanks to all of you wonderful people I am learning.
LOL
