Hi DudleyJohn:

"Yep."

This is Microsoft's little secret.  I, too, have
several numbers that will work with several
different disks, but not all numbers will work
with all disks.

There have been some interesting discussions in
this forum about "patterns" that are involved, and
how one could "invent" a working number for any
particular product or disk.  However, the
management of the forum has a policy AGAINST
publishing "hacks," so most of those threads have
been deleted from the forum (but not from my big
notebook where I keep copies I printed before the
threads were deleted).

Anyway, you've done the most practical thing --
you now know which numbers work with which disks. 
Don't forget the part about the SHARPIE PEN so you
don't have to do this again.

And, "Welcome to the Forum."

Jerry
