G'day Tim, I spent a couple of hours on this last night and should be able to provide patches for the two suggestions some time soon. They're currently in a Wrapper (subclass) module but could be moved easily, as they're just re-writes of some of the existing methods. There may well be better ways of doing it than what I've done, but I'll send you these and leave it in your hands. Cheers! Rick
