Copy and paste the texrt below my sig into a new "blank" page in code view,
then save and preview in browser and test it.
It will give you the basic idea.

Thanks Steve. This helped. Taking to the next step, can you point me in the
right direction for using Select Case? So based on combo value I can avoid
