Hi Marty

OK, that explains:

    Your Local System's MSXML Parsers:

    Microsoft.XMLDOM | undefined
    Msxml2.DOMDocument | undefined
    Msxml2.DOMDocument.2.6 | undefined
    Msxml2.DOMDocument.3.0 | undefined
    Msxml2.DOMDocument.4.0 | undefined

    Your Local System's MDAC:

    MDACVer.Version | undefined

Thanks for all those links! I'll have a look but probably not before
next week.
