RenderMan,
I sorry you went to all that trouble for me, but unfortunately, I don't have clue what you are trying to tell me.
Thanks for your efforts, I'm sure it will help someone else.
Lee Mac,
I failed to mention in my request that the date is last on each line.
Your lisp works perfectly when I move the date to the beginning of each line, which is no big deal. I get some real funny results otherwise.
Thanks much.
By the bye, why are the lines of code numbered? They have to be removed to run the lisp, don't they?
