Thanks Robert,
I appriciate the input. Yeah, your right.  I didn't think that I should
have master it...but I did think that I should've known more in 9
months.  I was like, everytime I encountered a problem...I never could
get to the bottom of it.  

Thanks guys for all the input on this one...I've started a program for
myself will all the links and other recommandations that you've all give
me.  

Thanks again,
Chris
