 That sounds about right. And I wish I had remembered that. I
 just did some of that expansion last night, but I used Ztree,
 and made a batch file with it's batch file function. It worked,
 but your way would have been a lot simpler.

 It's been a long time since I did that sort of thing. Probably
 going to have to get back into it.
