Hello again ceejay
I should of remembered your previous suggestion! In fact the way you
use tags is a really good workaround to what I want to do. I think I
will give it a shot and start tagging that way.
I don't know that much about the IDV2 tag protocols but I do know that
some tagging software uses extended tags such as 'Theme' 'Tones' and
'Styles'.
Regards
Dave
