*** SLY ***, I just sat down to another session with TC. When I was in Quick Score with a very simple 8 bar sequence, full score, I selected the Display option from both the menu and the Amiga D key. Both times the program just sat there and eliminated the menus. That left me with no way to get back to TC or Workbench or anywhere else. Also, it agravates me that with a perfectly good multitasking environment already established, that they could find no way of utilizing it or were determined to implement their own. I am refering to MPE. I think it is a waste of effort for Amigans to have to learn a new system of getting around. If I am in TC and wish to start up QS, I must make sure to do so by exiting to the Workbench by the MPE option…not the backscreen gadget or the Amiga M & N keys. Failure to do this has caused TC to lock up completely at worst case or just not loaded QS in other cases. I find this frustrating. At the very least, I feel they should have include some sort of warning and or code that watched out for this sort of natural assumption on the part of Amigans. Could they have used the Amiga enviroment and 'piped' the necessary info to QS? Thanks for your comments and help…. Kurt
