Ahhhhh, I see what you mean now, thank you very much. Never fails you come to my rescue on things. LOL

I'll have to give it a try tomorrow, heading out for a night on the town with the wife.

BTW, I figured out that I was using wrong code in the template:

{vb:var catc}

But once I changed to:

{vb:raw catc}

It all worked out, the code appearing at top went away so now I just need to convert to Adrian's suggestion and it will be good to go.
