Thanks for all the info, Snaike might be able to move over some of your older posts to this thread if you'd like. Not sure though, I don't like putting work on other people's desks.

Sorry, but the formatting of the original post hurt my eyes. My OCD made me fix it. Now, that's all the work I'm doing today.
