Thanks both for the advice. For now am going to continue with using basic as am used t it and it's giving me experience in its' use.

At the moment am weighing up if I need to include non-executable data files where such things as printer info is kept? Otherwise you would need to upload and link ...

But I will get a multimeter on the QL soon.
