Hi Laurie,

Thanks for the advice and offer of help. Unfortunately, as I mentioned, I am a bit of a newbie and have not fully found my way around the ALUG website, nor its terminology, yet. What exactly is the "ALUG lists passim" you refer to?

Hi, Ian: my pleasure. "Passim" is old-fashioned shorthand (Latin, actually) for "in the past" or "previous/ly". It means: look in the archives!

Actually, the 'Net is the resource you need. I'll expand when I answer your other post.

Cheers, Laurie.
