Thanks for that - I'll give it a try!

Oh, and sorry for the multiple posts...
Thoth is acting up - it hung says it it has sent 0 of 0K.
So I assumed it hadn't sent my post. In case there was a
problem with my news server, I tried from different servers.
Still no joy, so I tried to post via Google and found the other
post had in fact already been sent.

Again, my apologies!
