Hi,

Cool! Thanks a lot, that did the trick! Thanks a lot.

One other thing, is there any easy way to get the bevhavour of the 
Rectangle tool in the IDE, e.g. be able to select a rectangle and 
have the grow box appear on the corners and middle and be able to 
drag it to a new location?

Thanks a lot
All the Best
Dave
