As a follow up i have worked out a fallible test. 1. Assume all curves in a list to be arcs. 2. Therefore assume curve endpoints to be a chord. 3. A line drawn of length equal to the radius (known or calcultated) from the mid-point of the 'arc' perpendicular to the cord. 4. End point of the line defines the 'centre' of the 'arc' 5. Comparison of length from 'centre' to 'arc' endpoint with previously used radius. 6. If lengths are equal, Curve is Arc: TRUE. 7. Inequal curve is not an Arc: FALSE 8. Dispatch List by cull pattern.
