Thank you for taking the time to give me this information.

I may resort to doing it that way.

I currently don't use the calendar feature a great deal, so I'm hoping 
within a month or two there will be an update from the repository that 
will fix it.

If it goes too long, I will make good use of the excellent information 
you took the time to put together and send me.
