    My initial comment would be why do I have to signup/create an account to browse jobs. I don't mind if I want the ability to store my CV or track applications, but not for simple browsing.

    HMRC Submit Accounts online - Taxonomy error

    Thanks for the replies... This morning (well afternoon...too many beers!) closing the PDF and re-opening it seemed to work :) Hopefully, because they went to Companies House okay and I paid the bill, I won't get a late submission penalty...fingers crossed!
