Thanks for that Steven - could you possibly give me a C++ Standard reference for that?
14.8.1/6: "... But when a function template with explicit template arguments is used, the call does not have the correct syntactic form unless there is a function template with that name visible at the point of the call...."
Once again thank you Steven - I've found the reference, in particular the very clear example, but the rationale behind it eludes me! - Rob.
