Well, I tried the self-posting idea for queries...you never know if something new is going to work or not if you don't try it...and it didn't work! So, back to the old way of posting queries- you send 'em to me, and I'll post them monthly on the web site. Thanks for the feedback on the do-it-yourself system.
