Welcome to the list, Eric.  This is really a great community and I think
you'll be glad you found this bunch.

I always think it's good form to reply to any individual who takes the
time and effort to provide assistance.

A reply to the list, thanking several listees at the same time, also
serves to give notice that you now have your answer.

Doing as much research as you can before asking for additional
information helps because your questions are then more focused and you
have a better idea of what to ask and what the answers mean.

Remember, when searching the archives, that you are looking for exact
matches to your search criteria.  If you are only using the first blank
for example (For:), you are searching for matches to the word(s) in the
body of the archived posts.  Remember that some posts contain
misspellings so a posting that talked about rear breaks won't be found
with a search for    rear brakes  unless the word brakes is also shown
in one of the replies.
