However, I note that you are using LIDES coding conventions that we stopped encouraging about 12 years ago. It would be better if you could use current CHAT conventions.</div><div><br></div><div>—Brian </div><div><br><div><div>On Apr 23, 2014, at 8:25 AM, Bruno Estigarribia <<a href="mailto:brunilda@gmail.com">brunilda@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr">(Sorry, sent unfinished by mistake)<br>Thank you Leonid.
