Thanks James. But I'm VERY rusty on this - years since I wrote any Excel
macros. After copying that to the clipboard and opening Tools Macro
Visual Basic Editor, do I just paste that into the empty Personal.XLS that
appears? If so, then what?

Anyone able to remind me what steps to get from the above to a working
macro please?
