Darren, thanks as always for helpful reply

presumably the 'source' for the download will be that which GP editor uses (ie
primarily the pdce) i think ??

surely the implication of the download from the DC sysvol is that from a 
'version
control' view is that it is 'best / better' working practice to DELETE (scary 
??) a
locally stored ADM files once the policy settings have been imported in to the 
GPO
??
