Never mind, such things happen. And its good to see I am still able to trace my way down a TeX-problem (although it took a good part of the morning, bit rusty I guess).

That's why I commented somewhat cautiously. But it would be nice if it can be done. I am a bit of a perfectionist! yours sincerely, dr. H. van der Meer
