mnstrgrl - Thanks for the quick response and info. I'm new to the site and have been digging through it over the last week or two trying to learn as much as I can. Good to see you all are on top...

w0lverine - Yeah, I realized that after creating the 3 posts. I also discovered the Delete Post option, so I made corrections. Thanks for the info, I'll make sure to put it into use in the future.
