Dear, Oh Dear,
I must be more careful when reading bond error messages, I was changing the 
wrong widget I thought it was xmas_ref that was the problem but it was 
addinfo_xmas. I haven't looked at this bit of code for a while and had 
forgotten that dbobj was there. Sorry for the noise. 
Hope you have finally settled in your new offices.
Best,
Colin Close
