Thank you. Sadly I had only about 85 minutes's worth of patience. There were about 90 minutes between my two postings of my introduction. Both the second posting and the message to ask whether anyone had received the first came back to me in under 2 minutes. The first posting I didn't receive till 10 seconds after I sent the second copy of the introduction, though. All very strange; but I apologise again for the repetition. And of course for this posting, which I suppose is also unnecessary. :) Anyway, I'll know better in future. Ian
