Well you just tripped on one of the issues Chris, Ed, and many others have with ECB's. If you do what the second example proposes, posting the address of a 24 bit resident control block in the ECB, you better be sure that that ECB can't get double posted because POST doesn't tell you that your post code didn't make it into the ECB.
