Lars,I appreciate your help, and that from Rune Thorstensen and Erik Doving. Would you do me one final favor and relay my thanks to them -- I don't seem to find an email address for either of them in the messages I have received. I will be spending considerable time translating the material from Norwegian to English, and then following the path that appears.Sincerely,Richard RasmussonPS: If anyone wants Richard's e-mail address for direct contact, please contact me off-line,Lars E.
