Holy crap, Lewis! I just talked to you yesterday! And I know you haven't been back from AGI all that long, so I'm amazed at what you've pulled together so far and how fast. Stuff that's beyond me.

What a great thread.

I've been reluctant to buy any tutorials since I'm on dial-up, and I'm afraid it won't download. Would much prefer a CD or book at this point.

Thanks Dale!
