Hi Jean :) Thanks :) I had already forwarded your previous post but got a bit swamped at work today and forgot to let anyone know i had done that.
I'm not great at writing documentation but i think i am just about able to point people in roughly the right direction sometimes. It's difficult to cope with the flood of emails in the users list and there are already quite a few of good people answering questions well, even if we don't always agree with each other. This Impress question was unusual and i thought the docs team might have the best answers for it.
