Have to agree with Adam - but then, working by yourself as Val is doing, and 
knowing what you are doing, you do miss those things easily. As Val just 
told me: everyone needs an editor - and we on the list are hers. This 
tremendous job with all the symbols - not strange that there are some 
glitches,
