Razzak,
As usual, your solution is better than mine.
I will have to play with pause 4 after a pause 3.

If you can estimate the time required for backup (say 45 seconds)
you could use pause for 45 instead of pause 3
Bernie,
FWIW, the "PAUSE FOR nn" will pause everything for "nn" seconds and
nothing will happen nor any code after the PAUSE FOR nn will execute
before "nn" seconds.
PAUSE 3 with added PAUSE 4 command to re-paint the box is the ideal
solution for the situation illustrated in the original message.
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
