Thanks Richard, what would we do without you?

I can confirm that switching off syntax colouring allows a file to be loaded and run successfully cool

I take note that the problem lies with LLB and that you can correct it. Will await further news from you.

Many thanks again.

It's a bit of a leap from what I said to "the problem lies with LBB"! If Wine behaves differently from 'genuine' Windows the 'fault' lies with Wine (since it has to be compatible with how Windows actually works, not just with how it is documented to work).

Still, I should be able to modify LBB to be compatible with both.

What about (dare I say it) wines ability to use an alternate dll. Copy riched20.dll over from XP? Would that avoid the need to modify LBB? I could test it if need be.

You can do that with some DLLs but not with others, and I can't remember which category RICHED20.DLL is in, but feel free to try it.

Fortunately I was in any case planning a version 3.01 of LBB to incorporate INPUTCSV (see the other thread) so I can kill two birds with one stone.
