Thank you Ken (and others). I think there would be cases where the more 
complex methods are needed - but this is enough for my simple example.

The annoying thing is I had been looking at "set angle" but rejected it 
because the docs said, quite clearly,

and therefore I assumed that set angle wouldn't affect the data when I 
exported it.

Wrong again !   I should know by now that Rev does "the right thing" unless 
proven otherwise.

Thanks again !
