ok here's the thing… I just tried it again and it seems the problem lies in the SAVE command in the object editor. That is when the corruption occurs not whenI try to get the object back with external! I eem to have stumbled onto a workaround tho'… 1- USing eXternal load your object 2-Change any/all parameters in the object 3-exit the (key) celland go to the main screen 4-SAVE the 'changed' cell (even tho' there really is no change, as the change was to the eXternal object) 5-re-enter the cell and click on the object 6-SAVE the object, now the BUSY pointer stays up for a reaonable amount of time 7-delete and load (using eXternal) the modified object and voila! it work !! Like I said though it seems the problem happens when you AVE the object, not when you use the external thingy.. Lemme know if this works for you.. eli
