I like how you word things. Common sense. You're most welcome Yvonne. My grown daughters use 'cos - a lot of their friends speak that way and it's used as SMS speak for cell phones. I must admit that sometimes I use it too - mainly through laziness when speaking with my kids or others.

True - we tend to use slang a lot! :0) Well, it is another disappointment, as it is a no go... Hopefully, better one next time! __________________ Yvonne Office Savvy Assistant

Hi Yvonne, for other VAs who may be contacted by this person - can you give us any details about how you found them, or they found you? Was it a Craigslist ad?
