Maybe .net code? Yes, you should read. But I understand that anything with more than two syllables is beyond your comprehension. You only continue to make a fool of yourself by arguing with people more knowledgeable than you (and I'm not the only one). Either you are very stoopid, or you are a troll. Personally, I think you are both. -- ================== Remove the "x" from my email address Jerry Stuckle jstucklex@attglobal.net ==================
