    @TIF I'm trying to wake up enough to make sense. I just stayed up to late.
    The Greek alphabet on keypad is there an app for that? I'd like to be able to add a full attribute.

    If you are on Windows 10, click the window button and start to type character map, you can pin it to your task bar.

    LOL, I remember when 15 is all I had. I'm nearing 70 or so not real sure. Been busy & haven't been getting my new ones entered as I should be doing. Still have some inbound that I was hoping would come today.

    You'll get the 49er, just think of them as Lays potato chips.
