This is not something that easily use the send in time construct. I do not wish to waste the run-time a send in WAG requires. What is the approiate construct to use so that several very intense repeat loops will get equal time? I have been using wait for messages which did not function as I would have expected. It seems that wait for messages only allow "new" habdlers to proceed nut does not yeild control to a handler already running a repeat construct. Maybe this is a question I should ask of the RR support. Any ideas?

Kevin,
There are no light-weight threads in RR, so there is no way to do what you want to do (it's too bad too, because it would be very useful). I suppose you could write your own pseudo-threading, but unless they're fairly simple tasks I doubt it would be worth the effort.
Can you give an example of the kinds of tasks you're running, and why the first can't run to completion while the second waits? Presumably the final completion time will be the same (i.e. t1 + t2).
