I've folded this in Open Office Calc and it has a very clear pattern of variation of 5% brightness every 3hrs 29min, is this one an eclipsing binary? If not what does this sort of LC indicate? I have tried cutting and pasting the folded chart out of OO in here but it didn't work.
Can someone please adviseMT

yes, I think this is likely to be a close eclipsing binary. Martti also has it on his eclipsing binary list here http://talk.planethunters.org/#/boards/BPH0000007/discussions/DPH0000qr5?page=1
In order to display a chart here you have to save it on a file sharing site such as dropbox, photobucket or imgur and then add the link here.

Many thanks, have now folded it at 6 hrs 58 mins as not sure if there is one or two eclipses, if there are two they are very similar. Have now saved the chart as both a .jpeg and a .gif file to photobucket(I have not used one of these file sharing sites before), but I thereafter only seem to have the ability to paste a link to the image in my shiny new photobucket account into a post, not an actual image, as I have seen others do. Am I missing a stage in the process?

The sixth option is "image" (Crtl+G). In the URL you have to replace "www" with "dl". For example like this
Code "(https://dl.dropbox.com/s/3u0a7fyz0f0o891/hlsp_k2sff_k2_lightcurve_203794158-c02_kepler_v1_image.png?dl=0)"
