Thanks Graham. I think this does the trick. Much appreciated.
If you have a chance, can you spot the logic flaw as to why my mod to
Prashanth's code in this same thread does not work? That one does not
use loops and looks much simpler. But if there is a reason why it
can't work in that format, I'll just stick with the more complex
looping and develop that.
