Hi Eleanor,
Sorry to hear you were unwell. 
The link is in the middle of the email from Brian who is using Susan's email
to answer a query re CDEX in an earlier email. 
You should delete the > sign from before the link in the copied message
attached hereunder or use the link in the original email by Brian. 
Happy new year
Aedan.
