PEBKAC indeed, and due to my lack of typing skills, deteriorating eyesight - and lazyness. Not to mention stupidity. I'm sorry to have put you all to so much trouble, and am extremely grateful for all your help. I am particularly slow on the uptake when I am panicking. And I was definitely panicking. I had better buy myself a copy of The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy, and stand it up in front of myself. :-( I make no apology for shouting. Indeed, I shall shout it from the rooftops. Thank you all very much for your patience, tolerance and kindness. Lisi
