Hi Michael,
thank you for the nice lessson and for the very instructive link.
I read it thouroughly, went back to my example and still got the same
error: Grrr!!!!!!!!!!!
Then, finally, I discovered my error was as stupid as the difference
between _"_ and _''_ !
Now it works greatly! ..... :-)
Cheers,
    Ennio.
