Please don’t hand me off to another as I appreciate your effort and patience to help get something useful after my click on the link in your post of 10:55 pm October 5th, 2008.
I tried pressing each of those F keys while the arrow’s on the link
o Guess what?
o Didn’t get the screen refresh you mentioned.
Hmm, must be something about me or my machine because I click on the link in your post of 11:25 am October 6th, 2008 and it doesn’t work either.
o Maybe a clue - I noticed that link was not underlined.
o Maybe that’s it, huh?
Don’t know if it’s this computer or what, so requesting a favor
o Please scroll back up to the link at 10:55 pm October 5th, 2008 that I’m having trouble with and click on it yourself to see if it really works
Then report back
