indeed tony.
thanks for this. yep that would improve things slightly, though not handling 
yet the ojects on clipboard that you initially desired eh.

hey but what's with this, say, function your using below?
I've never used that one. is it a current one then?
or is that the one they're telling us not to use any more?
I use SayString and SayInteger for stuff, but I've never used/seen the plain 
old say, statement, which obviously takes two params, that you've included 
below?
