Many thanks all

Solution was to:

Export locale.txt in Excel spreadsheet and make the additions
Save locale.xls as tab delimited to local drive
Import said file (it will fail but will save the file to 'upload'
directory) via UI
Rename .locale.db to .locale.db.old
Copy across uploaded locale.??? To locale.txt
Restart IC

The import/export function via UI, does not work in the way I think it
should.............or am I doing it wrong?

Regards

Mike Curtis
