Thanks for the swift reply as ever, Julian (and Pat).

Ok, I can see why that might be the case, but I'm sure that
debug(whatever) was working before in Preview mode because I used it to
examine a couple of variables (see the thread I started yesterday). Why
would it work one minute in Preview mode and not the next? No big.

v3.0? Bloody hell, and I'm still using 1.9! I'd best get upgrading.
