Hi Gary,

    Thanks for your reply. All that I had to do was to read your reply to jog my memory. I really outsmarted myself this time. Two years ago I had set this up as a flash art superobject and totally forgotten, as in out-of-sight; out-of-mind, about it. The whole idea was to make the sort of change I am attempting easy to do.

    To further complicate my situation, I assumed when I got the flash art superobject dialog box, that it was a fluke. Oh well; some days I'm sharper than others :)

    Thanks again for your help Gary.
    
    Jack
