Just one thought, could you maybe turn the various sections of the document you've started into posts in this thread ... the info is more likely to be of use to someone doing the same conversion in future if it's on here rather than buried in micro$ofts basement in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying 'Beware of the Leopard'
