If I had realized you were using Jonathan's tools I would have fired 
them up to see how they work.  His tools are good but I have a hard time 
with most of them as he wrote them to the way he thinks they should be 
not the way things have always been done.  This is a good thing overall 
but it takes getting used to and I haven't taken that time.
