Neil,
Can't remember if the list is accepting attachments these days, but I'll
try anyway.
As you'll see from this, most of it came from the list - I just added
some rudimentary notes for my future benefit. I'm not a VB scripter, but
did manage to find my way through this. To actually delete any keys
there are four lines to be uncommented - it should be pretty obvious
which they are.
Regards,
Alan.

Alan
I'd be interested in what you did.
