I'm sorry it was really late yesterday, after 16 hours of work that I sent
this message. To elaborate a little further:

I tried several things to get the below to work. And it works fine until
the second time around. That's with or without the conditionals. If I put
it in a function by itself obviously it isn't going to appear to do
anything but it shouldn't send an error saying object doesn't support
property or method after it has already performed the task once, proving
it's ability to do it.

Sorry about the inconvenience. I was adding the below function for
simplicity, didn't do very well eh??

Thanks,

John
