But it is how I would describe, in writing, the construct of nested Ifs: If A {DO THIS} If B {DO THIS} EndIf EndIf Where there may be any amount of code, waiting or looping before you get to the If B and indeed the end of the If A statement. Or perhaps: If A {Wait for B} -- specified or indeterminate wait time EndIf Or perhaps: {Wait for A} If B {DO THIS} EndIf In either of the above, A could become False at anytime after the test or after the wait as the test for B and the execution of the related code is not dependant on A. The second one is simply If (A) AND (B) {DO THIS} EndIf perhaps an interesting side step into logic, but pretty irrelevant to the thread. Eric L.
