Aw, Ms. Karlsson - you just took the title from Martin. I'm sure you'll live up to the title just as Martin did. One thing though - in your case, i'd remove the "smart."

Outlook Express has this 'feature' which removes all single-spaces from the starts of lines, therefore nurgling a lot of ascii art. I highly recommend Free Agent, which is a very good newsreader. Have a nice day, Martin aka "Mart" aka "sMARTass"... |\/| _..__|_o._ /\_|_| o._ _ mart.atkins@-- | |(_|| |_|| | /--\|_|<|| |_> --bigfoot.com
