Sorry for the delayed response... I appreciate the help from all...

I was doing some more research and came across a technique that supposedly

did what I wanted, but it requires $$$ for the tool(s) to do it and for

this proof-of-concept phase I doubt that the powers that be are going to

pony up. I guess I'll wait until they want it bad enough right? Of course,

by then it will be an 'emergency' to get it done... gosh just once it would

be nice to plan this stuff out in advance wouldn't it?

If someone wants to give it a shot, here are some links that describe the

technique/process:
