many thanks IOhannes,
i have never really realised that [send] without an argument allows for dynamic allocation, many years later this is a minor revelation (which has been looking at me directly in the face for even longer).. unfortunately [receive] does not have the same parameters, so my hack still applies..
cheers.. (old dog new trick)
