Thanks, Albert, I've got no problem using an external EEP - I was just trying to work out how to pass a parameter to a custom EEP.
I was only trying to do that because I had been doing a little rationalisation to "internalise" any external EEPs that I could. When I've got nothing more exciting to do I might convert it to a Custom Form Action as Razzak & MikeB suggested but it's not a high priority.
