Hi Thomas Makes sense.
Thanks for the code works well, note - one of the // in the code below is on the wrong line. As for taking the pre-populated values further - I am not codey (clever) enough for that, I am guessing you could extend the search xml/xsd side of things to take more information. I already have a little Aide-mémoire table of min/max values for users so will use that for now and hardwire a link to it in the search form! Cheers for the help, much appreciated.
