Mr. Ceesay,
That won't be necessary. I'm not really particular about the precision of
the figures. I spotted what I thought to be an anomaly. I earn a living as
an Auditor. So, blame it on my training. I didn't mean to nit-pick. So no
offense intended!
Saul.

>> Ebrima, I think I can help you with your email problem. As to why
>>you

>>you

>>Outlook, I think there is a setting that limits messages larger than a
