Thanks Jon, yes I've been playing with this and will report when I have some more time.

There's a new version of iabc at http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/abc

This is easy to download and use for Win users - no propeller heads need apply, but from my quick assessment it has come a long way for average Nudcat needs. File loading is still a bit quirky, but please bear in mind that this is a work on progress.

I'll pass any feedback on to Aaron if that will help.

Regards, John
