Very sorry, Bill! I was only writing & sending on this iPad because it’s configured to send emails from this house, away from home, with limited WiFi. I haven't worked out how to easily send emails from the Windows laptop when we’re away.
So I was trying to report the wd’qscreen’ result as given by my laptop. (The iPad can’t run Ian’s J902 as its iOS is too old!) Confused? You won’t be once you ....
