Ray: Thanks for your advice on the software failure! I had thought of the stack overflow, and tried different stack numbers ( I think I tried up to 100000), but I still got the requester. I usually get a specific "stack overflow" message, if I remember correctly, when there is not enough stack space. I tried your suggestion about creating an iconx script to run the program, and it worked perfectly! Basically, the iconx script is just the name of the program (Morse3). I created a project icon (actually transferred the one I made for the program itself, changing it to a project type via IconEdit) and set c:iconx as the default tool. Presto! it worked on the first try. I guess the program was written to run from the Shell only. Thanks again for your help — maybe now I'll learn that code and get my ham license! Talk to you later…. —-AutoPilot Engaged — Dave
