That is great, thank you very much. If you could please add the Checked
for style template to the document with the following wiki-text:
{{Documentation/CheckedStyle|~~~~}} the 4 tildes will add your
electronic signature and date and time stamp. Any part of the user guide
that you proofread you should add that template so that we know it was done.
Also if you could sign the Status doc for that page with ~~~~ after my
name as having proofread.
Regards
Keith
