He he - mmm, that kinda fits with something I found: I installed the CCGV
voucher system fine (yes - on a modded site too), and found that whilst
coupons were accepted, the initial attempt always fails, yet trying again
works fine, and that the name of the coupon does not show in the admin part
of the site.

I discovered it seems to be a bug that has been doing the rounds since 2006
- I am going to try an earlier version to see if it works. All I want is a
straightforward coupon system for discounts (not even gift vouchers,
either...)

Alex.
