  29. <sigh> I knew that there had to be a catch 22 somewhere in this ....
  30. I will try and see if I can work around it by testing portions of the data 
  31. string rather than the whole thing- could be that most/all are unique 
  32. somehow even without the nul characters.

  34. Thanks again for all your help !!!
