Thank you that Mike, I will have a look at that.

Do you happen to know how Ancestral Sources manages to put the repository link into both the templated field and generic field which its is clealy achieving?

Thank you Lorna that was my assumption.

Two monitors good news though

Is there anyway I can run version 6 and version 7 in parallel on the same PC (and Ancestral sources v5 and v7 as well).
