Which I expect explains why I had trouble, and had to put one do/while in the main code and one in the subroutine recently. Had I used main vars 31 and above, passing those to the sub and using #1 thru x in the subs, it might have been good. But I didn't grok that detail till you started the most recent lecture series. Old dogs & new tricks & all that... Keep up the good work, I'm learning new stuff all along here. Thanks Jeff. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
