Thanks Hamish - it's working now so please ignore my last message. My 
error was that in selecting out of the database, I had let the cat 
column appear after the L, so that we had L  2 for the record header of 
the first line, L  3 for the next, and so on - which upset Grass on the 
import.

Cheers all
Richard
