During the Diana and Friends Daylong I had this auction

(p)-1-(p)-1
(1NT)-?

The opponent's sandwich 1NT by a passed hand shows 5-5 in the rounded suits.

What can I do with a 2-2-5-4 17-count without a heart stopper? Any club or heart bid shows 4-card spade support, dbl is support also.

So I passed. +500 was fine because the vulnerability was favourable.
