I'm still a bit puzzled over this. Its probably because I was trying to narrow it down and not to spend too many credits!  Must be my Scottish ancestry!  I do wish SP would have subscriptions available.

Thanks for that Monica.

The trouble I had was that the box would only accept a certain number of digets and I couldn't fathom out which 0s, /s or spaces to leave out! 

Still, with everyone's help I got there in the end.   :)
