Yea, but if it is all in documentation, then us newbies wouldn't keep 
bothering you Guru's with all these questions. BTW_FWIW, I think all you 
guys have done a fantastic job, in writing the software, in documenting 
what has already been published, and in taking the time to answer our 
questions. Even when we don't know the correct lingo, you guys figure 
out what we are trying to do and get us back on the path to success.
