i haven't provided a url as (1) i have excluded the hyperlinks until i find a
solution, (2) the source is encrypted, and (3) the file may be too large to
post on the list and i don't relish being screwed again for contravening the
rules.

thank you very much for your suggestions :-) i appreciate that.
