Re: re triggers

[boothm@xxxxxxx]

Thank you.  That seems like the right solution.  I appreciate it.  I had
looked at it, but turned away because it required hard-coding column
numbers, so far as I could see.  

I was afraid someone would find out about it and report to everyone here
that I was hard-coding column numbers, and I would be humiliated before my
peers.
