Most appreciative of your work and however long it takes to get everything up to speed,fine with me and most if not all of us i would think.
Keep up the great work that gives us protection and support from the ofttimes maniacal monster that is M/soft.

AskWoody LoungerYes,i suspected this might be it
i had done that shortly before the problem arose,
And after Woody gave the ok to update for this month,
i did so again 2 days ago and wonder of wonders
yesterday the problem went away all by itself.
So everything is back in order now.
Thanks for asking appreciated..
