     Don't you believe that for one minute !    :)
Steven has always been most helpful, even when the various calamities
have been my own fault.  But remember, Steven is in New Zealand, and the
time difference means live chat is limited to specific times of the day.
I am in Oz, but I am several hours later than NZ time - it is still 
daylight here (3.25 pm, Tuesday).

   Oh, good.  So I won't need to fiddle with Opera, then.  I don't
actually need it in BL3, although it is my browser of choice in Win3.1,
for local HTML files only - I don't go on-line with with Win3.1.
