Thanks for this code. Sorts things out beautifully, all syncs fine then
screws itself up when I sync with the other PC. I can't see any common
denominator as to why it affects some records and not others - it's
irritating but not life-threatening.

It's something to keep fiddling with in a 'quiet' moment - whatever that is!
