To you all - I apologise for my absence but it has been totally out of my control. 
I have been offline since December 30 (apart from a few brief moments) and have been in constant contact with my ISP people.
I had a call today to say that the system was back up but, prior to that, I knew (and they had told me) that this system was on borrowed time.
My ISP will cease to exist towards the end of this month (February) but they have made alternate arrangements to assist.
Unfortunately the new Provider requires a 'landline' connection which I do not have so I will be trying to sort something out with them.
'Zenobia' installed me as a 'resident expert' when this site was formed and I truly appreciate the faith installed and entrusted to me.
I hope that, so far, I have been of assistance and I can say that I have had much help, and learned quite a bit, from people on this Board.
Some time ago there was a message posted in appreciation of the members who were contributing and also to express gratitude in the fact that 'we' had become a team.
It may be that I am absent again for a time but I will attempt to make that time as short as possible.
In the meantime I would like to think that the 'team' will function and that everyone will do their utmost to help each other.
Over the next few days (I have to work so time may be limited), given my Internet connection remains intact I intend to work my way through all messages and respond to as many as I can - and in the best possible way that I can.
Good luck to you all and please keep working as a team.
With luck I shall have some input to a few queries after work tonight.
Ian
