Hmmm... is this the ONLY way  or does the old method still work also?

Anyone going to perform some hard testing over the weekend on the new =
code and report back to the list?  I would love to be able to do this, =
but working two jobs, I barely have time for my family, much less =
anything fun (yes, coding is fun for me.  Since it is about the only =
thing free that I can do decently, its all I have).

Thanks Aldo!
