The 'parse source . . me .' modification cracked the problem, Andy - many
thanks!
I see now from my very earliest version of the REXX, I had missed out the
the space between the placeholders for the first two tokens
That led me into a can of worms that eventually resulted in me removing the
'. . me .' completely, leaving just 'parse source'.
Which in turn led to a different can of worms, and from there on it was
just downhill all the way.
As I said early on, it had to be one of those 'basic, simple' things...

Regards
Sean
