Hi Alan

Thanks for the info. It is one of those problems that happens now and 
then and you can't even present a case for what caused it. As Roger and 
myself were both skilled at getting SpectrumLab to 'fire blanks'  
somehow, I asked Stefan in passing thinking that everyone was as clever 
as Roger and me and he would say, you are not doing X,Y,Z are you.

SpectrumLab is so good at doing so many things at once, I have 7 
instances running perfectly on my PC at the moment, that we can forgive 
it for not forgiving fools.
