Nice! Thanks very much for that, I did have the wrong form. This is the one I need, I can now go to the BBQ and B'day party that I was delaying while I tried to get my head around this, it has put my mind at rest, now I just have to worry about the bank statements thing! :-) Cheers, enjoy the rest ...
