I can't help but think that this is becoming a very involved project. One which possibly should have been based on a commercial fee arrangement. Crasherpaul you really do owe SamT a hell of a lot for the effort he's made on your behalf.

As to his statement that he is limited to the specific advice he's able to offer due to legal advice, there is no suggestion that what you are doing here is illegal. It's simply that later on any results derived from this project may be based on an inaccuracy which may lead to a legal liability. That is all.

Afterall any assistance offered here is done with the best intentions.
