Thanks Bob,

There is lot of stuff in T-bird that I will never know about or even
use.  It has a lot of features.  There are a few things that I wish it
did have.  Such as what Rocky said about "joining multi part images
together."   I have heard about add-ons but that just makes things more
complicated sometimes.

Again that for the tip.  Have a good week.
