Sorry guys but I have been offline on business.

Dav, are you still having problems. If so, let me know and I should be 
around for the next few days and will do my best to help.

Any example code you can make available will be *much* appreciated.

I'd also be keen (time permitting of course) to help you get your stuff 
done for the FOO Camp. Which FOO camp is this for?

Regards,

Sean
