Thank you very much for your reply Kevin. I would really appreciate it if you 
can elaborate on the solution you have mentioned. I am completely new to Linux 
so I do not quite understand what you are saying. Will it be possible for you 
to guide me in a more detailed manner and/or provide me the code that you 
developed so that I may use it as a reference?! Any help you can extend my way 
will save me!

Thank you :)
