I was considering replying to you, but now that I have found the identical message in at least twelve news groups, multi-posted instead of cross-posted, I think I will forget about it. If you want cooperation from us, try being cooperative yourself. Of course you didn't post it in the one newsgroup that would best satisfy your needs, and I won't bother telling you what it is. -- Chuck F (cbfalconer AT yahoo DOT com) (cbfalconer AT XXXXworldnet DOT att DOT net) Available for consulting/temporary embedded and systems.
