I really have no problem with leaving play to do what it does now, but it would never occur to me to press the key that takes you forward one more level after I had just changed a user setting. For me I logically say to myself, “That setting is good so I'm through here... now lets back up and get the hell out of here.” Using PLAY to do that doesn't make a lot of sense to me but there isn't any harm done by leaving it there. ===== Craig rb_dev_at_yahoo.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
