Just wanted to say, thank you for the consideration--although I haven't had 
this particular problem, few things are as frustrating as doing a search on 
deja, finding that someone had your identical problem, then, before anyone 
posts a solution, posts a follow up of never mind, figured it out and fixed 
it, with no details about how they did so.

Thanks
Scott Robbins
