All these great responses are exactly what I wanted.... glad I asked though sorry I did not start a new thread....

BOB H... I can understand how using foot switches would save wear and tear on the PM button... I have them though I do not use them...will think about that....

JOHN C.... Sounds like you use the PM very much like I do....

Wish I could refer back to the thread while writing this post.... My forgetter works a lot better than my rememberer...

A BIG THANKS to all of you...

Elizabeth....
