Don, I agree that there would have to be custom code, but there are better ways to handle it than 'keeping a text screen' with all its attendant overhead. A sufficiently large circular buffer would do the trick, and you could access it when needed, formatting the output to reflect the current screen. Sorta 'working backwards' through the captured text, if you follow what I mean. -larry
