Also (interestingly): 1) There is no entry for "return." in the index. 2) Until I got the your responses to my email, I could not find a relevant entry in forum search for "return"
It might be just a further manifestation of my dyslexia, but I find it somewhat difficult to find answers to specific questions in the J help documents. Anyway, thanks again for your quick response.
