Sorry guys...
Not so good at multi-tasking. After this, I 'll take a BLANKO break, I promise!. This is a "hot mess!"
Sorry, I didn't notice the I in your last post, Jane. Missed two of the R's and the T too.
I'll go back to see if I've missed anything else... whew, a bad day here! Can someone put me out of my misery and solve this?
