Hei Brian

It's something like that I'm thinking of now.:-) - But it'll take some 
time to make such templates, and I guess it's just about too late to 
make them for this round, since I have nearly finished one of the larger 
category of music.

- But OK, there will be more when I by and by get more and more of my 
LP's recorded onto the computer. - I still have apprx. 3200-3300 LPs + 
apprx. 1200 MC's (most with 2 records each) left to copy, so I could 
then use such templates for the future.:-)
