Thanks for the reply. Weird thing was, after I wrote this message, I got the showtime() thing to work. I don't know what was happening. Maybe I thought it was part of Nanforum instead of Clipper Tools. Either way the thing seems to work well... but for the sake of learning, I will go through your suggestion.
Thanks M. PS: I would have replied back to the thread and said "Nevermind, I found it!" But I couldn't figure out how to do that, since I don't get my own e-mail to reply to when posting.
