I've got to say. This is a great way. I am unaware of all the functions
in Basic due to the loss of my 86's instruction manual. His idea wasn't
bad and I was incorrect. I am sorry for the last flame I have sent.
Although my way is good, it is not the best. Thank you for teaching me
something new about Basic. I will still stand as the Basic Guru due to
my awesome coding. Thank ye and have a nice day.
