Mark - I just tried your script - it works very well indeed.  And very fast too.  I didn't try it on the same file that I tried with svdl script but I have a feeling yours may be faster.
I will have to try it on a more complex scene to see if that is correct.
Thankyou very much to everyone - this is great.
Much vue happiness because of this.
Love esther
PS it definitely is a very fast script!  Just checked.
PPS any chance of a standalone one that doesn't need poser open to fix the file or maybe could batch fix them?  Not essential by any means.  what we have already is wonderfully great!!!!!!
