fantastic stuff, Richard, muchos gracias,
good info, looks v. accurate, loads of juicy looking references, too... would you believe it, it's now 4.23am over here, and I'd sworn I'd turn in early tonight - my eyes won't focus properly on the page, dammit!
So I'm gonna digest it properly later in the day - if I try any longer, I'll press another wrong key and delete myself...
catch you all soonest,
'a million thanks, good luck, good luck',
Len
