The code that I suggested in post #4 in this thread works exactly as you requested on a MacBook Pro running the same operating system that you are running on your iMac and you should have the same utilities on your iMac. I have absolutely no idea why it is working for me and fails for you if you copied the code I suggested without modifying it.
