Suggestions? I have been googling and trying out various utilities that promise to do the job, but even a $60 utility can't see to get this right.

It seems there is no penalty for lying. -- Roedy Green Canadian Mind Products http://mindprod.com The modern conservative is engaged in one of man’s oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness. ~ John Kenneth Galbraith (born: 1908-10-15 died: 2006-04-29 at age: 97)
