You asked "was..." it is not something I had thought to check at the time. I can check if it is still there but from the way you phrased the question Stu I get sense it would be gone now and therefore not able to be verified? If I can find BCM for O somewhere I might try installing it again to check the removal process out more thoroughly. Thanks for the idea on this.
