Thanks Diva for your input. I understand where you are coming from but if someone knows the answer to the problem then this is the first place to ask. As for paying and sharing I have no problem with it but I will always ask if others have ideas that I haven't tried.

I have to say I have never posted code before so I didn't know about the coding tag so apologies for the ignorance. At least I can say I have learned a bit about the forum if not the solution to the problem.

Returning to the problem that I am trying to solve, if anyone has suggestions for how I might be able to get this to work I am open to it.

Thanks again Diva.
