 Mucked up the Admin / User Account - Fenlander
Thanks for the link. It didn't give the answeer as such but gave clues to a resolution. It turns out that there is a hidden admin account which appears in safe mode if you press F8 at startup.

By using that account in safe mode I was able to go into the user account area from control panel and make one of the other accounts back into an admin type.

Then on a normal reboot it was all fine.
