Hi all, Sorry to be a quitter, but I'm pushed on available time for this project. I've bitten the bullet and I'm going for a rebuild from original media then I'll take it around the loop again. If I had more time, I'd stick at it till I knew how to fix it (a much more satisfactory state of affairs), but I've a deadline to meet, blah, blah, blah... Cheers.
