Hi Frank,
Thank you for your advice. I have tried without a dot at the beginning but
the result is the same. Anyway, i am going to use the standard from now.
Maybe I make a mistake and the problem is not where I am thinking... I do
not know, do you think that is correct my approach?
Thnks, BR,
Kike
