OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOh. I think maybe Dotan was first to suggest, but
this is necessary reading for everyone. I am overtaken with awe. I
have been using google for as long as I can remember and just found out
how to make it easy. I have only read a few instructions, but I can see
that I have been using it wrong. Wow. What a breakthrough for me. I
remember Dotan's first recommendation, but this one helped more, but I
always entered the wrong way, so I always got a different answer and I
always got somewhat lesseer answer to my need. Frans, you have moved
way up my list of debt for good advice. Thanks so very much.
