populating a var instead of directly a field don't working ???

[Andre.Bisseret]

Sarah,
I had tried a fllter command without success, because I did know about  
the "*" possibility
Thanks a lot for this very usefull feature I just learned.

Your handler is working like a charm :-))

Best regards from Grenoble
André
