Oh, I appreciate that, Charles. Thank you. I will send it to the List  
next message...

And in the past five minutes I seemed to have partially solved the  
problem with the archiving of our messages at the LinguistList...as  
you know our Archive 3 is located here:

SW List Archive 3
http://listserv.linguistlist.org/archives/sw-l.html

and when the old Lists were lost, that meant that the archives had to  
be re-linked to the new address...

Many thanks to Susan at LinguistList.org for all your help today...

Val ;-)
