Thanks Guys for your suggestions.
Here is what i eneded up doing and it cost me nothing. Which is the price i wanted to pay.
I have a Windows Mobile PDA so i downloaded TV remotecontroller 5.7 from
www.pdawin.com
I also downloaded a logitech z-680 ccf file from
http://www.remotecentral.com
click on files and search for logitech.
I installed the software and loaded the CCF file, checked it operated the speakers ok, which it did. I then taught my Microsoft MCE remote using may PDA.
Smiles all round, WAF is high.
Regards
BT
