captfran1: Welcome to the INA Nonsuch Discussion Group and congrats on your purchase. In order to get help from others, we sign each post similar to mine. This helps you and anyone trying to respond to your requests. I assume you have joined the INA and have members access. Since you are receiving this one, you should be getting emails from now on. I believe all your present questions have been discussed before and can be found in our old posts on the website.
Regards,
