    Is there a column/field in a table to define the html page for IC to
pick it up automatically ?

    Oh thank you so much.  I'm been trying to figure out how to grab the search
URL for a while.  None of my searches came up with anything.  I should be
able to grab some split code from some where and then do some figuring.

Thanks again.
