Its been a long day, but I've found the problem. It's a very boring memory overwrite cause by another maximum/minimum error in the P2K. If you ask it for max/min of the ARP_PATTERN_STEP_SELECT it gives you 0 and 32, where it should be 0 and 31. Oh dear.

The fix is a bit more complicated as I am finding bits of code that seem to partially work round it and other bits that rely on the values given. My bad. Anyway, I'll get back when I have worked out the best way to fix.

Also, you idea of presenting it as a data grid sounds kind of neat. I might play with that the next time I get any time off. Bedtime now, though.
Regards,
Keith
