Devendra,

Thank you very much!

It was, probably, my first post in the Mathematica group and wow - what a 
difference comparing to other CAS newsgroup or forum where I used to post. I 
got a very nice reply, the problem was addressed, a workaround was 
suggested, and I wasn't even asked to fill the SCR (software change 
request.) Fantastic!

Great work, guys!
