Thanks @Cleoriff and @MI5 

I wonder if it`s a "morning glitch"? Remember I had problems - not receiving pm`s - on Thursday morning last week but then righted itself...

Thanks @pgn for the info on notifications/e-mails, which I hope will be picked up and acted on when Khoros do the work on forum.

As to the questions, I like the way you describe them as "a good set of questions with a couple of hum-diners and at least 2 doozies" LOL I`m looking forward to seeing what answers everyone gives in their pms tomorrow...
