Neil Thanks. I've filed your code away for future use. I'd already coded it the other way - rearranged the few chords that needed it so that the notes between which I wanted the slide appeared last in the chord <...> construct, and for the two chords where I needed to indicate a 2nd slide I used another voice with hidden notes.
