Ok no need to reply. Problem has been sorted with the 337 update.
Not  checked the help pages or video support , but if it's not mentioned...might be an idea.
Cheers,
Hal,

Thanks for this information, though not at all what I wanted to hear. 
While I'm glad that, at last, with Affinity, there's a product range mimicing the versatility (and price) of Serif's X range, designed to work across all platforms (PC / Mac / Tablet / Mobile), I cannot understand why no one thought to incorporate a way to translare/transfer Serif X range to Affinity.
 
I'm not alone in having numerous (hundreds) of files containing all sorts of text, picture and/or drawings, each with complex format settings - and that it comes as a blow to lean that the only way to get files incorporated is by importing them as PDFs.
 
Is there no way to provide a fle conversion utility - I'm sure it would be welcomed - heck, I'd even pay for it!
