Hi Linx

All got a little complicated when you started to give me your answer, but they have noe been indexed by Google on the 3rd spidered attempt. Its something I must keep an eye on.

set up a redirect in your htaccess (I think its called a 301 redirect). That way if anyone goes to your old page (including search engines) they get moved to your new page straight away - its the best way to help search engines when you move a site or pages to a new URL and minimizes any lost SE Juice from moving pages.

Eventually though the SEs will figure out the page has gone and stop trying to find it, but if there are external links to that page then a redirect is the best option.
