Good morning Network Admin, and welcome to the MajorGeeks.com forums

Somewhat of a misleading nick you chose there, as it implies you have some authority here. So just to clarify, you are not an Admin at MajorGeeks.com, before anyone considers their reply I'm sure members will find that clarification helpful to the content of the responses they provide.

Wishing you all the best in your endeavours.
