Actually, there's at least one good reason for it to exist that I can think of - it *could* make recovering a broken array much easier. Think about it, I think it's documented in the wiki. That said, I'm hoping to do some work soon that will make it redundant. One little tip though - you've done a load of research to tell us what we already know - as documented on the wiki - and now you're asking us to do a load of work. If you want it done, well nobody else has bothered so far so what makes you think they'll bother now? Cheers, Wol
