Hi Al, I already posted on the forums, but for completeness also here:
a lot can be done by replacing repeat with with repeat for each where you can. -- repeat with i = 1 to the number of words of fldhexa3 -- put 00 & word i of fldhexa3 & word i of fldhexa3 & word i of fldhexa3 after tVar2 -- end repeat repeat for each word theWord in fldhexa3 put 00 & theword & theword & theword after tVar2 end repeat A sidenode: I always use strict compile mode, therefore I added the needed variable declarations and noticed you use startTime as a variablename, which is a reserved keyword. That is not a good idea. (I noticed, because I managed to freeze liveCode where I fixed only half of the use of startTime. Booom.)
