thanks guys

Hi Mike;
Glad to hear you finally conquered the beast.

Seems like it was a long hard fought battle, but once again persistance and patience have paid off.

Each set we work on is a new learning experience, and it's great to have a place like AK where knowledge is plentiful and people are always willing to share it.

Congratulations and keep up the good work!

Bob
