Thanks for the info Werner. I should have posted that I discovered that
with a bit of trial and error in the end. Knowing how to detach an
attribute by removing the brackets is useful.

This business of attaching or not attaching is a little confusing for a
new user. The error messages generated by gsymcheck only indicate the
problem if you know the code, I think. Might be something to add some
extra documentation about in the faqs. 

best,
