Thank you all for such a quick response. I shall investigate all
suggestions and report back.

Thinking back, I was trying to run before I could walk. I was
specifying too many parameters in the document to begin with
(fonts, print area/size) rather than getting to the meat and
getting the tables across columns and pages. I'll go back to
the root problem and then, when that works, look at the 'look'
of the document.

Thanks again, I'm sure I shan't be gone for long!

   Justin.
