Hi Sarah, Thanks for taking a look !
I am not unaware that the code I used was both verbose and non-optimized. Believe it or not, this was deliberate! My rationale is this: A complete newbie, non-programmer, could probably look at a series of if-then-end ifs and understand what was going on such that s/he could modify the script for a different usage. A real programmer could likewise take a look at it and understand it while going off muttering about what a complete idiot I am for doing it that way. OTOH, while a real programmer could look at the more optimized code with its menuPick and pParameters and the like and understand it, I really doubt that a complete newbie, non-programmer would do likewise. I guess I should really rename my planned series 'Transcript for Dummies' @;-) Eric and Klaus and the others are doing nice things for the programming crowd; I'm trying to do likewise for the DreamCard group who wants to do something a little bit more exciting than the PowerPoint that they've been told is all they ever need to know...
