yellowSnow -
Are you really aggravated that I did not take your code and post it in my program verbatim? I thought the idea out here was NOT to do that.

I am not IGNORING your advice. I simply do not understand it all, or want to try something on my own.
I do not want free code handed out to me. I never asked for it, and I told you that. I also thanked your for your time, and I appreciate the effort you gave on the problem, but you also continually ignore what I am asking and simply gave me code. I loved the code, and it was a great help, but I still want to write and turn in my own work.

I ask for help in understanding, NOT free fixes to problems that I did not write. Your code was great, but I did not write it, and I do not want credit for it.
I am working on trying to understand problems and come up with my own fixes to things. I am never going to learn anything if I just take your code and put it in a program.
I know my fixes are not as smooth as yours, but I have been coding for 4 weeks now, I do not think they would be. If I just take your code, put it in my program and move on I am never going to learn anything.

wow. I thought I was so close and I couldn't have been farther off.
My boolean attempts were WAY screwed up!

Changing to cdEntry was something I had played with in one way or another several times, never with any success, but I could have stayed for 100 years the way I was going and would have never even come close on most of it.

You don't know how much I appreciate this. I am feeling a bit dence right now and will probably stay out of here the rest of the night just to go over things and try to improve my future performance. This is all so new, and I think I am just trying too much for not having any more experience than I do ... at the same time, I will never learn if I do not try this stuff.

If it is any consolation, I only have two more methods I am even going to attempt and then I am done until I get back from Mexico in mid August ... so you will done with me for at least that long! :o)
