I did not indicate that you said that, Horst. Check my words carefully. I merely said that I cringe when I see all that stuff repeated, and I cringe because of the extra load imposed on the server. Was just indicating the kind of overquoting that is not necessary or recommended. I later posted a reply to another reply that, hopefully will further illustrate the problem with a measure of humor. - -- Roger, List-Owner The LEG (Leica Enthusiasts Mailing List) http://www.topica.com/lists/leica
