As we all have found out, there are many ways to do one thing. This is what I feel is a benefit to having/reading variations to a similar topic. Additionally, I always find new things out that I didn't know before I started reading something on the same subject-matter. Of course even when the subject-matter covers the things I knew already, it's still a nice feeling of confirmation. Just my inflation-version of two cents. -- Best regards, Chris Do not open shrink-wrap until you have read and agreed to the conditions contained within.
