[PATTON, BILLY \(SBCSI\)]

Thanks, Paul,
Believe it or not,  I just saw the missing ; when me stupid window
popped up to tell me I had this message from you.

It always help to ask someone else.  It seems to spur you on to get the
job done yourself before someone else responds.  I have been looking for
that bug for almost 1.5 hours.

Thanks again Paul.
