Dear and o,

Thank you for the replies.

Sorry, I didn't specify that I translate into Russian, and your explatations

are exactly what I need.

The sheet is full of apparent typos, but I changed nothing in these

fragments.

This job comes from an agency, so I have no direct access to the client, but

I'm afraid I'll have to advise the agency to do so.

Best regards,

S. Sosnovsky, M.D.
