Don & Charles,

Brilliant - you're right I like it! An excellent tutorial - very
clear/informative/well illustrated
(see Charles had a hand in it).

<<Hide read messages>> makes navigation/message location far more managable.

Plus ... have also (mysteriously) located missing thread&messages! Wonder
whether
Outlook might be more effective at rebuilding damaged threads??

Once again, many thanks.
Den
