Thanks Peter for the lightning fast response!

OK I thought it must be general thing (and yet another reason to move to LC 8.1)

Actually (nearly) all my work is in LC 8.1.1 now - this particular app I’m using 6.7.11 on is a legacy one for a client that I’m modernising bit by bit - and am now recommending a ‘great leap forward’ to 8.1.1…

Kind regards

Dave
