Wow, thank you very much Trog. I guess looking at the green conversion it wasn't so ridiculous as I thought. And yes, it works just fine. I'll study the Ruby "tutorial" when I have time later.

Above and beyond as always... I appreciate it.

TROG ... you mentioned naming of INPUTS on the RUBY module, and cautioned about punctuation and spaces in the name. Now you have me wondering ...
There have been, hmmmm .... several times I have 2 INPUT variables that have a Name and a Number.
I've been trying to keep a simple convention, using something like this:
name
name#
? Is there a way to test if a variable name [label] is not acceptable ?

Something every Ruby programmer needs to know; so I've posted the answer
HERE so it's easier to find.
Short version of the answer - yes, name (letters of either case) followed by digits is always acceptable. And having a convention is a fine idea - saves a hell of a lot of skipping around the code trying to remind yourself what you called things!
