Philip and Scott
  Many thanks for your responses.  Philip's idea worked but I could not 
get Scott's to work.  The problem with both of them is that they demand a 
command line input as opposed to entering them using the menu.  That is not 
a big problem except that I have to remember the command each time I use 
it, so I have written a little note to myself.  I must admit I didn't find 
the manual too helpful for this so Philip's and Scott's contributions are 
really appreciated.
