John,
I have already used your re-orient macro in my latest attempt for the IRTC.  I spent
about
two days trying to to do it myself with separate rotations about x, y and z and, in
desperation, I thought - how about looking at John's macro's again - and there it was!
It works beautifully. Thanks a lot, your work has been duly acknowledged.
David
