Hi Scott, Its a MAC OSX 10.8.2, ermmm-- let me think more about the saving issue and if I find anything more I'll get back. Got to get my lecture ready first tho now I am back in business- somewhat! I close down the whole machine and try again completely from fresh. Thanks for your help and Gyorgy and Murat Cheers, Mark
