Thanks Blues, This is indeed a superior approach... And in fact, it would be fairly easy to tap into the BOLTprocess function. We would just need to find a way to pass some parametes to it. We've talke about that in another thread... Planning to do at some point. I will add this idea specifically to my todo list to see if we can't implement it at some point. We might even want to reorganize our whole savepage function to be more modular. Not sure if we want to go that route though, as some things could get really messy if certain steps get skipped. But either way, I'll need more time than I have right now to really delve into this. Maybe later in the week I might take a first stab at it.
