Just a question on the uuencode.

You say:

This does work for me now so thanks.  But I would like to remove the first 
and last line as you say.  How do I do that?

I thought you meant:

uuencode -m <myinputfile -m remotefilename >myoutfile

But that didn't work.

Neither did this:

uuencode -m <myinputfile -m >myoutfile

If I can get this working then I am all set to get it all working!

Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Angus
