Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

Thanks, Terry, it works.  I would've never figured this out on my own.  You
don't know how much trouble you saved me...even though I'm quite fond of
programming drudgery by now.  Thanks Casio Kid.  And I will buy that book
when you publish it...but I'll probably have a Kurzweil by that time....
