Interesting. Well, I am glad you can replicate it. As far as the 
'voodoo', that's over my head :)

Let me know if you come up with anything to test, I will do what I can. 
Also I have lived with this for a while, so if you can't get to it yet 
that is cool as well.

Also, since I haven't said it in a while, Thank you, for all your 
effort, great support and wonderful personality.
