Thanks, Anthony, appreciate the explanations. I'm slowly getting to
grips with some of this. But I must say that the more I read, the more
there seems I have yet to learn!

Have included a batch of Verbatim DVD+RW 4X in the new discs that
arrived a few minute ago (and more DVD-RW, and some DVD-R).

So many permutations now to remember: Drive, Medium, Program being
