Robert: I hope this comes across clearly. Apart from the
fact that I have "commented out" some of your stuff from the
XYWWWEB>REG file, what is the difference between my SAveTo
and the SAveTo you sent me below? By the way, your SAveTo
below works fine, ...mine does not work at all. Yet, they
seem to me to be the same, but for the "commented out"
material. Maben
