Martin, I haven't been able to determine exactly what is going on when I say things broke, just that they are very different than with WaitIO. The problem is complicated by the fact that I have many io requests sharing a common reply port (a practice I thought was generally ok). You did help to point a difference between WaitIO and simply doing a GetMsg however. Since WaitIO calls WaitPort which calls Wait, the signal bit is cleared for the reply port. This doesn't happen with GetMsg, and perhaps that part of my problem. I think I will try separate reply ports so I can better tell what's going on. Thanks much for your reply. Chip
