Thanks Brian and Bill for your informative responses. I hadn't realised 
that Q MEMASSIST applied to CMMA rather than CMM. The names are too 
similar!
I gather CMMA is still pretty new and I'd rather steer clear of that for 
now.
However, I would like to persist with CMM. My original question still 
stands... how can I verify that it is actually working?
