Kai you beautiful Applescript madman.
This works perfect. I didn't know that Applescript would finish any earlier
iterations. This is part of a much larger script, so that's why it may look
disconnected. I appreciate all your "picky" comments. I obviously am not a
pro at this, so those points help me to understand the language a bit
better.
Thanks again to you and Michelle Steiner and everyone else.
Rich
