Buck-
        Thanx for the response.  Actually, I could use that code.  I would like
to try it out.  I am going to try and use the max spool file parameter
on the output queue first. 
        So how is everything going?  I hope things are well.  It must be
getting cold there.  Go put on a sweater.  You don't want to catch
cold.  Anything new with the old gang?  How is the new Enzien child? 
Does its head spin around?  It must if John is his dad.  Wish him well
for me.  Tell John Ganther that him and I have to go visit Big Ollie
again.  BTW, you me and Tom are going to play Hearts over the internet
eventually.  I know I can whip your butts this time.  
        Buck, I have to get going.  Please give everyone my regards.  Have a
happy and safe Halloween.  
Gary
P.S.  May your life be devoid of decimal data errors.
