Anyhow, if any future posts come along with similar ill-defined problems then I will post them the form (in private email). The fact that the original poster's problem turned out to be a dodgy emulator pod connection (who would have thought of _that_?) shows just how comprehensive a real checklist would have to be. At least the current form was filled out by the poster and hopefully it helped to zoom in on the problem area. Regards, SJH Canberra, Australia
