Kent,
thanks for the info but i hadn't noticed your topic yet. I'll have a look and print of the
code so i can check it out ( might learn something valuable from it ).

Jens,
i 've checked out those UDF's and found some interesting ones. I might even consider
digging in deeper into the UDF's in the near future but i solved the problem using a couple
of basic if then's and a select - case - endselect.

I'm going to double check the code once more and i'll post it in here.
I'll try to use different colors like in Kent's example but forgive me if i might
forget it. Remember that the code may not resemble what you would have made of it
because i 'm not as good as some of the kix fans in here.

Thanks to all,
Edwin
