And, as it would probably take me a little longer than just an hour to implement, and I did not consider it to be of prime usefulness to have a feature that only I was interested in, I wasn't about to try to figure out how to go about doing it.. If that's changed, I might consider it. But given the amount of junk that's suddenly been dumped on me in terms of work in the last two weeks, it does not look too promising to be able to do ANY hacking in the near future :-( !!!!! ... JG
