Thank you so much Craig!!! You saved the day for me! I changed the code slightly, simply to customize it for my needs, but it works beautifully, and in just the way I wanted it to.

Jacque, thank you for the information. I am more familiar with Java and C#, so I am used to using ampersands. Hi Craig. That code works well, but I am hoping to find a way to continue the input from the field, rather than the ask window. I tried to edit the code to work with the field, but I have no...
