Nathan: At first I took your message to be a hostile attack on me, but I realized that you have very good points. I understand that the Usenet is not meant to be a Dear Abbey column or a help clinic. However, the Usenet is an incredible vehicle for exchanging information and ideas. No, I didn't think that there would be a group of wise sages that would guide me to the light. Instead, I hoped I could get some useful feedback from people of different backgrounds about solving an important goal of mine. My all-capital-letters cry for help does kind of convey to the image you spoke of. I used all caps to attract attention, but I do see how someone might wonder if I was in serious danger (which I'm not). As for putting my message in the six groups I sent it to, I did this because possibly some users of one group don't use another. The groups I sent the message to dealt with cd-rom, graphics, animation, multimedia, and music -- all which deal with multimedia in some way. I didn't think that my message would clutter up the newsgroups. However, I somehow didn't foresee that the RESPONSES would. For this, I'm sorry. By the way, what does IMHO mean? Robert Jordan
