Cheers Mike, once again, I appreciate your input and its all taken on board. I have not done any programming for about 30 years or whenever the first PCs became available and i had to learn Basic. Naturally over time much of that is now fuzzy and while for this project I could have used Basic and worked with Picaxe controllers, I decided that it might be smarter to learn a new more up to date skill than rehashing an old one. Sooo here I am.
I will start reading up on your new clues and see what can be achieved. lol Once again I learned a crap load today and once again, my sincere thanks for bearing with me.
PAUL.S............Im guessing you are referring to my opening post and your thoughts are appreciated, I think Mike helped me with that part already. However if you mean the one a couple up then Im not quite sure what you mean but happy to be enlightened.
