Thanks Ed,
    For your well supported and impassioned reply.  Not sure what you ment
by tirade but I did see that later on the list you did take a couple more
hits from others.  Still trying to open the picture as my mentally
challenged old computer isn't doing so well.  The new wippersnapper has
crashed or at least had a hard landing.
