Nancy, I am not seeing McCubbins/Stevens connection yet, (have data on
another comp. too), so can you go back 1 or 2 more generations then I can
probably figure it out.
If it is through the Smith line, I probably have that in another notebook,
and not in this computer.
Thanks too for letting me know there is still more "family" out there !!!
So cool !!
