    Brilliant. I’ll give it a go in the week when I’ve had slightly less red than I have tonight. :D 
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    Do you still have to remember to turn off automatic updates in the Kindle app? Been a while since I had any dealings with downloaded Amazon books.

    @debitcardmayhem, just wanted to say a huge thank you, that worked a treat.  I owe you one. :smile:
