Thanks Hagan - this solves the problem.  I have also looked at your  
suggesting regarding limiting the search for Guest users... I tried  
pasting in the code you supplied, but it is not achieving the desired  
result.  I shall have a think and see if I can spot the problem though as  
it does seem like a rather sensible idea.

Rob.
