Trevor / Cheng Thanks for telling me about FR. Wish I'd known about it a couple of years ago (AND with its own support group!) as I have found QR to be flakey with support and documentation among the worst around. I guess I'll really have to start work on convincing the boss. Trouble is he is a grumpy old bastard and and doesn't like having to learn new tricks ;-).
