no foul. I think we both made the mistake of answering a question in absolutes, when it's a bit of a gray area. For my application, the Repeater behaves fine, you've got obvious and justified beefs in the way the Repeater loops. Believe me, I was on this list for the year of "it will be out soon..." and the "Woops, the bug free software we promised will be out soon..." times. I was a beta tester of OS 1.1 I respect Electrix's decision of making me a beta tester even though my company's been developing a rival product, The Againinator. When it's finally done, it will have the glitch free loops you so long for, and will fetch your newspaper each morning. Mark >Mark - > >no harm. no problem.
