Hope this takes the some of the fear factor away - though frankly, If I could do it fearlessly and without screwing up, anybody can....

    Thank you Bazza! Much appreciated. I'll keep that on file.

    Congratulations, I'm sure you love it by now. I went from Windows to Mac not knowing anything about it, but it was a very natural experience for me.
