Whilst I very much appreciate your responses I would like to make the following points.

I realise you all think my code is not that good which is hardly surprising as I'm not a programmer.

The code works perfectly on Windows 7 but run the upgrade to Windows 10 and it starts causing errors so downgrade back to Windows 7 and hey presto it all works fine again.

IMHO this sort of proves that Microsoft did something on the upgrade.

So I'll close this question as everyone here thinks it's my code. It's just that I don't.

Thanks.
Tim

Sorry for delay in getting back. I have discovered one other thing about the code.
It works in Windows 7 but NOT in Windows 10! Have you any idea why that might be?

Here's the code I'm using - can't see where it could go wrong, but thanks for your help.

Thanks I'll look there. The other question is of course. Why has this just started happening? It was all working OK until just recently & it works perfectly well on my pc, I can't get it to go wrong.
