Ya, no problem CW. I went back and looked at another stock I owned a few years ago that did a dividend split similar to this one and found that what happened was that there WAS a bid / ask price, BUT..... it still could not be traded until the paperwork, (shares), reached the broker physically. That one took about 3 weeks to go through.
That said, we may see the market makers trying to find an opening price prior to the actual day of trading. I would expect it will give us all some idea of where we will be in that.
One thing for sure......we will all know in less then a week. GLTA
