Thanks for the correction. It's very useful, and one of the strengths of this group, that other posters supply information and corrections.

I'm afraid I've rather a large backlog of BMD pages to go through (around 50 at the moment) and so sometimes post at a speed that regrettably, though unintentionally, sacrifices accuracy.
