Hi Chip, Yes, that'll work. But what if the variable changes again? For example, suppose I have a text variable named MyTextVariable. It gets some text assigned to it. Then, later on, it might get more text appended to it. And maybe more later on, etc., depending upon certain factors. So I want to be alerted whenever the value of that variable changes.
