   I was touching it anyway because of the end of line issue in the Via line   
   copying, so the simplification was the logical thing to do. ;)   
      
   There's probably more places the same thing can be done in the code, but I   
   didn't want to do a complete overhaul. ;)

   I'll test it too. ;)   
      
    PQ> Yay! Thank you muchly.   
      
   You're welcome.   
      
   Bye, Wilfred.
