I doubt it's proper netiquette to kick a thread out of a group, especially if the group is involved. I have said many times before, and do so again, setting a follow up works best when the OP does it, otherwise it's either ignored, or a part of the thread runs in all groups, and other parts don't, creating quite a mess. Setting a follow up to "put things straight" rarely works, if at all. > Yes, you're making a big ol' stink about nothing, Well, William James *is* a pain in the ass. -- John Small Perl scripts: http://johnbokma.com/perl/ Perl programmer available: http://castleamber.com/ Happy Customers: http://castleamber.com/testimonials.html
