Christopher,
  Thanks for all the info. Micha Riser: Author of the Weed file saw my 
post on another group and let me know where to get it.
  As for the preview mode, that's just something I would have on my wish 
list. Usually I don't have problems finding my objects but there's 
always that one file that drives me nuts....LOL
  Thanks again,
Les
