Thanks.. Interestingly enough I found the generated RTF
appears to be invalid as MS-Word does not like it and 
the general format it uses doesn't match examples in the
RTF Wikipedia page.. Oh well.. Not sure I'll have time to
retrofit this code afterall..   If someone else wants it, 
I'll hand it over.. Time to head back over to the icky
land of 'Perl'.. Eww!
