Thanks Mike,

I also discovered that if you keep scrolling thru the options that there 
is a pre-canned template in the list. I tried it but I suspect it does 
not work as it did not return any results. With 100+ channels it should 
have found several at the least. However it did give me a few ideas and 
I am playing with a few changes that seem to get me close to what I 
want. Now I just need to wait until the new shows get closer to verify 
my code.
