I have just tried to reproduce this, and like so many "live demos" it failed to produce the error.... I got the error with the elide patch needed for earlier versions of Tcl/Tk when using them with Tkman, but I no longer have this patch, because it is not needed with recent versions of Tcl/Tk. I cannot find it on the web, so I can't reproduce this. > > TIA > > Dave > Hugh hgs / dmu.ac.uk
