Keith: I Just downloaded your new Access! 1.4, and it looks pretty good. A couple of comments, however: 1) When it does a NewCLI, it puts a close gadget in the cli window. However, the close gadget doesn't get rid of the window; it just stops the cli. So, I'm stuck with a window that doesn't do anything and that I can't get rid of. And, if I try LACE with this window on the screen, it tells me to close all windows first; but, since I can't close the window, the program just hangs. 2) I managed to get the program to GURU, by dialing a lot of numbers. I think the problem had to do with hanging up while a script was still running, and then dialing out on a new number (with its own script). If I can duplicate this, I'll let you know. 3) I put the Access screen into the back, and moved Workbench to the front (with a cli open). I tried using RD to look at a file (through the cli). The screen flashed, but I didn't see the RD display; I just assumed that I disn't have enough memory. When I switched to the back, where Access was, I found the RD display. Perhaps RD should see which screen is in front before assuming it was called from Access. Well, that's it for now. Jeffrey Cohen
