Hi Hector
I'm afraid that did not work for me. On issuing the copy command the error message came up again. It looks like the only answer is to go back to the files I had yesterday and redo the coding changes I did yesteday afternoon. Just hope I can remember them all! If nothing else it does show the value of having regular back-ups.
