You're very welcome, Art. No trouble at all. I'm thinking the old dog did
indeed learn a new trick today! As for me, I am sort of a map enthusiast - when
I visit a new place, first thing I have to do is get a map and see where I'm at.
Over the years my collection of folding paper maps has gotten rather extensive,
and ratty as well because I use the heck out of 'em. Mapquest on the Internet
was revolutionary to me a few years ago. And then, quite recently, Google Maps
came along and blew Mapquest right out of the water. Check out those Satellite
and Hybrid buttons once you access a map. (Of course it's a lot more
interesting if you live in a populous area like I do - southern New England -
because they have some mighty detailed ariel photos. If I call up my own
address, I can literally see my wife's car in the driveway.)
Best regards,
Steve O.
