Hi Bob,

Excellent! That did the trick. It's amazing how you look through the list of
available functions and miss something that obvious!

I see in the documentation a concern about being threadsafe? That kinda scares
me at this point. I've been fighting with the new dual core architecture for
months now with my programs only to find that I need to patch Windows XP SP2
because Micro$oft's stuff isn't designed to run the dual core machines and even
some of the faster single core machines! LOL

Thanks,

Rob
