fanoush and w14,

Thanks for taking the time to put together your responses to my question. I'm quite impressed. You're right. I have no Linux computer. If I do in fact get this to work for me I'll do the best I can to get this together for other newbies like me and post it. Fanoush, I tried clicking your osso xterm link above and my windows xp computer could not open it. Apparently there is a program I need to open it with. Where do I get that?

thanks much!
