[frederic . colledani]

Hi Jean,

Thanks for the quick reply. That's exactly what I needed. Now I need to practice a bit.

Thanks also for the link to the documentation, that's very useful too.

And you guessed well for my name. I'm French. I see you're also active in the French forum. See you there soon!

Fred.
