        Have you checked SWAG?  It has at least 2 samples of Julian
        code snippets.  May have more but that's what I seem to
        recall.

        If you don't have SWAG your missing out on some good code.

        Here is a link

        my website.  Then go to links and programming to get the SWAG
        link.
