Hi Mauro,

Thanks for the quick reply! I have no problem with sharing my project, but I 
tried to reproduce it, and I failed. Which is annoying, since it took me 2 
hours to fix it yesterday (which I 'fixed' by turning of the off 'formats'. 
Today, I turned it on again, and now it works. *sigh* :-)

When I encounter the error again, I'll share the project, okay?

Kind regards,

Erik Pragt
