Tom, I'll have a look at how it works tonight - It is getting the power source from somewhere, but I don't remember parsing tags with colons in them....Maybe there is an old schema that I used. I think I set it up by analysing the tags used in the databse rather than reading documentation - oops!
I'll have a look at your version when the dev server starts responding again - it timed out on me just now! Regards Graham.
