To type a degree symbol (°) on PCs, use the following keystokes--while holding down the alt key, type 0176 on the numeric keypad. Sorry, Centris, I don't know how to do it on Macs. _________________ There comes a time in every young boy's life when he gets an irresistible urge to seek buried treasure.--Mark Twain |

| Good tip, if you don't remember it though just use the character map in Windows (charmap.exe). |
