Hi again, Ganapat,
Thanks for the quick reply.

Thanks. I suspect renaming the field would help a lot, or perhaps reworking
your data structures so that you have a union of ccpi2 and dmc/l2c
structures where necessary.

Ah, sorry about that. I got _var and _name the wrong way around and thought
you were introducing a file called event_ccpi2! What you have looks fine.
