You are of course correct. You may also blame me for having Bob add the
"are you sure" option. <g> If you had a good-sized dataset, this process
could, even in the early DOS versions of TMG, last through a leisurely lunch
on the PCs of the period. It's not a major time loser on recent equipment,
a fact of which your message reminded me.
