This is fantastic !!!......certainly makes creating Determinators a breeze
.....and also storing globals.
......One enhancement that i have mentioned that would be good is to also
import a reported message in xpl monitor into an Exisiting
Determinator..........

Also thanks for incorporating the global refresh.......
