Gerry,

Thanks for your advice and guidance. I am working on a more cogent explanation, I'll be sure it addresses your questions as well as those of Frosty and Malc. I'm also working on code based on what I'm learning; I appreciate all y'all helping me make it as robust as possible for this task.

I like your suggestion of cutting from an original document and pasting into the target documents.

More news as it develops, film at 11.

I gather that Frosty := Jason since Malcolm is Malcolm?? (One more handle decoded.)

Thanks,
