Absolutely.  I felt I'd jumped the gun with my original post and wasn't prepared
to let it stand uncorrected.

Fear  not.  I  didn't interpret it by any means as an imposition. It was no more
than  the  truth,  after  all.  And  you also pointed out my work in finding the
problem in the first place, which I took rather as a compliment.

I'll probably try to create one myself if no-one already has such a thing. When
I get the time, that is.

Glad  it  helped.  I find many programmers new to Windows and/or object-oriented
programming  take a long time to get used to this mode of thinking, so I thought
it  worth mentioning here. Back in the 'good' old days, programs used to be like
the  Roman  army:  lots  of  lines  of  code and subroutines all marching in one
direction.  So  it  was  easy  to  see  when one line was out of step. Nowadays,
programs  are  more  like  busy traffic systems, with many independent pieces of
code  all trying to get where they want to go without killing other bits of code
on the way.

Thank you - and feel free. :)
