Hi Bruce,

I just realised I didn't reply to let you know how this turned out.

Ah, that explains it, I now have the gadgets spaced as I want them.

If anyone is interested this is for my DigiCamGUI AREXX script which
is an AWNPipe GUI for the command line digital camera driver Digicam.
An older beta version is on my projects page at:

http://www.btinternet.com/~clubbed/projects/index.html

and I'll be uploading Beta 8 with the above in the next couple of
days (although it won't be much use unless you have a Digicam
compatible camera).

Anyway thanks for the quick reply Bruce, much appreciated.

Regards

Robert
