I wish to comment about Pete's Template Shell.  Earlier someone suggested 
that folks look at a Trigger Template on my web site.  I didn't say 
anything then but should have.  The template is from Pete.  I've used it 
many times and it is so easy to get it right the first time. 

Thanks Pete for the great chunk of bits..

There is, and it's to use the physical file's DDS as a template. There's 
an 
shell program you can download on my website. Click the programming link.
