Hi Adam,

yes I tried your code and it gives me back the reference adresses and
not the names.

I tried it again this evening and it give me back the names.

My only conclusion is that this is one of these very seldom
"external induced errors", which normally happens in an area 
located around 80cm in front of flat screens, tft monitor and such.
Most often these occurences are accompanied by the clicking noise
of around 104 switches placed on a PCB. 
These errors are known under the scientifically used abbreviation
"M.E.".

sorry...I dont know what went wrong the first. Now it works, and
that is nice!
Thank you very much! :)

Best regards,
