Indeed, it is syntactically horrendous. I wrote that after I hit problem in
Python to test the concept, honest...

I can give you access to one ;)

I'm sure in testing there was a reason why i'd switched them around, but I
cannot remember right now. As you can see in this example they are the correct
way around (but the code doesn't get that far anyway).
Thanks again for looking.
