 *sigh* yes, that looks like it. The help for "force" gives a more
concise example. What I'd posted was actually a cut-down version of my
original problem!

 I've not tested it yet, but other things I'd tried had removed the
bug without me understanding why - such as reassinging the args to
interpOne inside the function.

 Do any other languages work like this?

 Thanks
