Paul,
 
Sorry for the delay...I was 'offline' yesterday...this mdb is at home on a
personal machine.  I got your other email as well.  It does allow a 'user'
to select what objects are visible and rearrange the objects on the
screen...even the size of some objects.   I will try and put something
together tonight.
 
Thanks,
