Why the grade of 'B'?
ASKER
does it matter?
Yes.
1) It helps me know what to do to improve answers.
2) EE would like you to explain the reason for a 'B' grade, so others know what kind of information is "missing" from the Accepted Solution(s) to have a "complete" solution to be able to resolve their issue too.
3) Points are awarded based on the grade.

I don't care about points or a "perfect record" ... others read and rely on these threads for solutions, and while it appears from the thread that the information I provided was what you needed, the grade of 'B' indicates that something was missing from it to be considered a "complete" solution.
I won't bug you about this or anything - I'll let you do whatever you will with it - but most Experts rely on the grading to improve their answers.
