Anyway, kudos for figuring it out, but perhaps even bigger kudos for asking "how"...that's becoming a lost art. It seems that more and more people care less and less about how or why something works, and when it breaks, they act like a child with a broken toy expecting someone to come and magically fix it. I find it all pretty sad, I just hope this isn't an evolutionary shift.
Thanks for your kind comment!
I was so frustrated over this I lost a couple of nights’ sleep......
But with a bit of help from the forum and then some sketching and thinking, the penny dropped.
Gotta keep that brain working!
