I thought you would be the best bet Joe. Unfortunately, I can't upload it as it contains a lot of personal details. Thanks for the offer though; very kind. I'll try to get hold of an XP Pro, try the solution proposed on the internet and if that doesn't work I'll download that filewrangler sw.

Thanks very much for your help; much appreciated

Cheers Joe. That sounds interesting. Never heard of Virtual Box but the other option sounds worth a try. If I can load the XP Pro onto my Vista computer I could be in business
