I've been to a lot of tutorial sites on the issue, and understand ( I think) conceptually what they're driving at, but am having a bitch of a time implementing the concept. It would be nice to be in the same office with someone who was in the process or doing normalization, to see how he goes about doing it. Maybe I'm over-complicating this, and as a result can't see the forest for the trees. Tia.......... -duke
