No problem. Glad to help. As many times as Steve has filled in for me (or
corrected me), it is the least I can do. This way he can get some more
beauty sleep this morning. Isn't that right, Rumple-Steve-Skin?

Thanks Steve! That did it! I really appreciatre your skill and patience.
Huge thanks and Big Kudos! One more very simple question... I hope. Is
there a statement that is similar to excel's "application.screenupdating =
False"? It would be nice (but not nessecary) to have the program run without
flashing slides.

There's a Windows API call to prevent updating the window.
I think Shyam's got an example on ... hold on ... yup, here 'tis:

Sorry, don't get it!

Rumpled. That's me. Beauty and me together in once sentence, though ... bad
idea, Bill.

Sorry, don't get it!

Aw, c'mon Speedo (or would you rather I call you Mr. Earl?) ... you and I are
the only ones old enough TO get it. ;-)

Possibly. '58 of which century? ;-)
