Hi Susan, Thanks for explaining how this works. I do like knowing what's going on behind the scenes so to speak. I like the [[*q~,'*]] approach and will edit my file with that. I had read about the [q] code but I hadn't figured out the parameters of how it exactly worked. Thanks, Bruce, for being right. (smile).
