Thanks,

Whoops, I missed that you removed the } that belongs to the enclosing if
block. Probably because it is not properly indented in the original
code.

Easy to miss because that bracket is in wrong place in first place.

Michael can you now on even build test before sending. Thanks.


Sure, I usually do. For this one I did not but obviously I should have..
