Ok. I cured this one myself. This worked for me so I'll post it here. I hope I'm not violating any rules of the forum. If I am, let me know. I found it on another forum.. I cheated.:icon_evil:
I Take no credit for the methods used here. They are a combination of information I found at various sites.
I only read, retained, reworded, and regurgitated it for you. Hopefully in an easy to understand and follow form.
