WOWEEKAZOWEE - this is SO MUCH better than the dumb GUI. Since I have 
plenty of entries to work with, so I know all the formats, using Word 
Perfect's macro editor, I changed the entire records file to add a new A 
record for each domain. Working great. I can't believe how slow the GUI is, 
especially compared to this pretty simple manual method.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for everyone's help on this, greatly 
appreciated!!!!!
