Ursus,
Thanks, damned if this didn't work. For some reason I couldn't make
this technique work before. I just upgraded to FMP Advanced so maybe
that has something to do with it.
However I've run into another issue with ex****ting involving FMP error
800. I'll have a separate post on that later, hopefully I can solve
it first.
