Greg,  I have just sent an email from this account to my other account and it appeared with the time stamp of 1 hour earlier. This is buzzare. Thanks for any ideas. Marty

I don't know about that, I have worked with people who don't know what to read, and don't know about different pages or windows, and if one has never been inside that computer's BIOS before, you don't

I am used to providing the competence personally. As long as someone can recognize selected text that is usually enough. -- Soronel Haetir soronel.haetir@...
