All of us on the list are learning something new everyday one way or the
other ..there are a few
on this list who are still catching up and trying to get upto speed...If one
can help,pls do ..if you think the question is stupid enough...the del key
is not too far away....Mailing lists are for learning....not to prove or
disprove if you are close to a nobel prize ....Lets just add some positive
attitude in the best interest of everyone ....Thanks.
Cheers,Padhu
