Hiya,
Apologies at the delayed reply - things became a bit busy yesterday so I never had a chance to return. I'll try the tutorial in photoshop support.com and let you know the results.
Mask Pro is definitely a no go, even for the simplest of tasks. I've found it pretty cumbersome and the results they achive in the demo's seem to be a bit unachievable somehow.
I'll keep you all posted. Thanks for the comments thus far.
