Hi Jon,

Thanks for the help....

I've tried changing that line as suggested (using 0 and 100 as test values) 
and i'm still stopping after 50 lines. Do I need to restart IC or something 
for this to work or be applied?

I'm getting the feeling that i can't set mv_matchlimit here?

At worst I'll edit the DbSearch.pm file :)

Thanks

Mark
