Oh my, that would work marvelously, wouldn't it?. How excellent. Thank you
for your assistance--I'll let you know how it turns out. I'm going to use
the first demonstration, because I have others coders working on the same
source, so if they decided to add a race and forgot to add the .vs and .vp,
well.. yeah. Using the switch case, if they forgot, the race would just
punch.
Again, thank you for your help.
