Glad to hear it worked out! And thanks for reporting back with details.

Others may have need for that report if you don't mind sharing, and if 
you think it is general enough. I think you can attach Scheme files 
here, but if not, posting a link to a file hosting site works too.

(I'm not certain if it has been created, but there was some past 
discussion about a user-repository for custom reports for people to 
share. The wiki may have more info on this as well. I haven't checked in 
a while.)

Regards,
Adrien
