Mats, this is bizarre:-
That appeared to work (see output).

The only change I've made to the computer since yesterday was install IE 6 SP1 and
associated security patches (Was using IE 5.0).
Thanks for your help.
Best wishes,

To fool LilyPond into thinking that a note has another duration
than what's actually printed, you could say
c4*2 (a quarter note that lasts for half a bar) or

I am really new to lilypond. I wanted to try it
out, because I am trying to become independent on any music notation program. I
thought maybe MusicXML could help me out, but it was too verbose to be of any
