David,

I have had problems on some workstations, where, for example, I 
wanted to "play" a Shift-F6 into a CHOOSE ... CHKBOX command so 
that everything would be preselected. Sometimes it would not work. 
Usually it would

On a hunch that it had something to do with timing, I added a couple of 
keystrokes to the beginning of the playback file that, in effect, would be 
keypresses that would have little or no effect on the screen during a 
choose command.  If either or both of those keystrokes got lost or 
ignored, it would make no difference. Since adding those, the 
CHOOSE has always come up with all choices pre-selected.  I think I 
just pressed a few space bars before pressing the Shift-F6.

Bill
