I've thought of trying that but am usually busy when I have to do such
things and haven't gotten around to trying it.  I just do it the way I
know works, which is more cumbersome, but I don't like trying experiments
when I'm rushed (which is the only time I usually think of them).
I think I'll try that next time the need arises.  Thanks.
