Sorry, is it right that I understand it as you call yourself a guru?! May I give you a compliment: you're right. (Just wanted to catch the opportunity to say that so that everyone can hear it. Thanks for taking so much time for others' problems, even mine.) Sorry for being off-topic, but I found it necessary to say. Otherwise - as often as Joerg's name appears in this newsgroup, it may not be really necessary...
