Rich, I am still not getting anything from TALK (I didn't get Daron's, nor Michelle's messages below) except from you and some of the other BSS people (Corinna and Sara come to mind within the last 5 working days). Should I kill my registration, and then re-register?
If you have any ideas, I can test them out by getting Paul or Kevin Meagher to send a test email on TALK to see if I get it. I wonder if there are others out there that just think things are slow (it would be hard to find out, I am sure). I don't find out until a BSS person responds. Can your List provider do any kind of ping or something with my address (if you are still using 3rd party)? Do you think there it might be our filter here at SH? I can check with our network guru.

The kind of "red flag" that I see here is what you could call a naked, one shot "If At". Almost every time I use If At (and PauseLoop) it's in it's own enclosed, multi-shot Do...Loop. So your logic would be something like: Do Until EOF(F) ... At "" 'this clears the last True At Enter strEmpNumb Do Stable 2 If At("[EMAIL PROTECTED],1") Then ... End If If Trim(View(2, 1, 3)) = "" Then ... End If If At("@?,?") Then ... EndIf Loop Until At("@4,13") 'ready for next employee number Loop It looks like your Pausing and Viewing only on rows 1 and 2, so a Key "@_CLEAR" shouldn't be necessary.

This will clear any previously satisfied conditions. Especially since this is contained within a Do Loop.

I need to evaluate two things: 1. If the script gets an "Employee Terminated" warning and 2. If the employee doesn't have a timecard (no Ctrl Hours posted) I have written an If/Else statement that firsts looks for the warning: If At ("[EMAIL PROTECTED],1) Then..... do some stuff and go on to the next employee. If there is no warning it next looks for a blank Ctrl Hour field: ElseIf Trim(View(2, 1, 3)) = "" Then.... do some different stuff and go on to the next employee. Finally, if everything is okay it writes the allowance value to the timecard: Else Tab_ "" ... and do more stuff and go onto the next employee. The script is very inconsistent when it runs. Sometimes it goes to the correct If statement and sometimes it doesn't. In my test population I had one employee with no timecard and it put allowances on the card. Another had hours and it evaluated it as no timecard. The one that it stumbles over the most is when an employee has been termed it goes to the Else statement and trys to put allowances on the card. When I originally wrote this script I didn't have the "Termed" condition in it, and I still had a lot of problems getting the script to evaluate the Ctrl Hour field for consecutive employees. I added a Key "@_CLEAR" before the Do Until loop and that seemed to fix it. I've tried added another one just before the script enters the employee's ID. It's still inconsistent. I've only been able to get the script to run correctly through my entire test population of 12 employees once. Attached are the script, the source file, and the exception file from a successful run. Any suggestions are welcome. Okay, I'm really just looking to do the least amount of QA at the end of the script as I have to!
