Thanks for your last .
A friend of mine who is a bit of a computer buff is coming over to see me
within the next 3 week sand he has promised to straighten out my systems. I
will talk to him re Access 97 etc so dont do anything regading the disk for
the time being but thanks again for your willing help.
