Fred and C-flat, Outstanding - thank you! Yeah, I just starting to get the idea here... I mean, this is really stretching my comprehension level on this stuff, but there's just a hint of a glimmer here thats starting to dawn.... I'm really trying to fit this into the one particular song that I mentioned and I've found some of those notes... not that I don't want to learn leads for more than one tune - just looking for a starting point... so, I'm off to work on what you've sent here.... and please, I hope you and others will keep it coming - but remember I'm at the "Guitar Leads for Dummies" stage still!
