Never mind, BigHit - maybe you have solved the Emirates puzzle....

On a more serious note, picking up on 'Who'stheDaddy's' reference to index corrections, it is VITAL that these are only used for small adjustments, as they are normally gross 'rounding-up/downs' for ease of use (otherwise they would be into several places of decimals), and with large weights can give significant trim errors.
