The only problem left now is that you are too efficient and you make the
rest of us look bad. :)
Thanks SO MUCH for these two fixes -- these were the main things I
wanted to see, and now there they are. Clever solution to the VW
updating issue, by the way. I thought you'd have to run a "send" loop,
which would have been messy. Updating when entering the fields is a fine
compromise.
I'm off to download. Thank you!
