So *that's* what's doing it! :-) I was blindly lifting code from some other example, I forget which. > an alternative for try-catch could be the adverse conjunction (::) Yes, that looks much neater. (I needed the error-tolerant precautionary pclose because without it, garbage windows build up underneath the current one during the code/test cycle, if you go with just what the Form Editor generates for you). Seems like Adverse as you've used it corresponds to Visual Basic's devilishly handy "On Error Resume Next" -- which I think of as Chernobyl programming. But it has its uses. Like: here. Thanks Bill and everyone for eyeballing my code. I knew I'd learn something.
