Dear Keith,
Many thanks for the solution you provided...
Never in a month of Sundays would I have found that!
However, there's no such thing as a free lunch - further difficulties
have manifested themselves.
I have made some comments in the attached file which should show where
there are problems - mainly dealing with staff-names and whether they
appear or not.
Could I ask you to consider these for me?
Regards
Bill
