No probs, we all get busy at times.

OK, I've narrowed the problem down.  If I enter any Bank letter, other
than "A", then it saves a numeric digit in the Bank field in the CSV
file, as per your description.  However, when I enter Bank "A" into a
memory, it writes nothing to the Bank field.  I had originally only
tried Bank "A".

I think it would be a lot neater if you could translate it to letters,
rather than numbers, so that the appearance is consistant.

Hope this helps...

Cheers,
