Hopefully I wasn't the one who recommended it before.  Forgive the IJC users
enthusiasm...its just that we have been waiting for this solution for years
and finally we have it and it allows so many possibilities that we tend to
be a bit effusive...but we aren't selling anything...just suggesting that it
will help you do what you are trying to do.
