Many,many thanks Maurizio. I had figured out what the "trasto" did but couldn't find an English equivalent anywhere. I checked the link you provided. Where did you find the English equivalent? This is the first "tranche" of a large job and it would be most helpful to have a good Italian-English glossary (the ones I have found didn't offer "trasto". Thanks again, Richard Fowler, [email protected]
