Cheers Joel,

I can paste it but it would be a couple of sides of A4 and -L's working
out well enough for what I need so it's probably not worth it. Unless
it's going to cause (or it indicates) a security problem I don't really
have time to dwell on it, gotta install the bugger at the weekend!
Thanks for offering to take a look though :)

Regards,

Roger.
