Carl, I think your problem is that the response analysis script operates in two different files. It starts in Names, and then switches to Solicit (where the source code records are) to do the find and display results, then comes back to names. To access the scriptmaker, you need to be signed in with the master password (or another that gives you access.) Try this: Open the Solicit_.102 file with master password Go to layout mode Go to the right layout (I think it's something like Response Criteria) Go to Find mode Enter all your find requests Execute Find Go to ScriptMaker Save your find requests as a script (sounds like you know how to do this) Check the "appear on menu" box so the script can be called from the Script menu That should do it. You'll probably need to tweak your script a bit so that it works from Find mode, since the script that brings you to the Response Criteria screen kicks you into Find mode. You may have to switch to Browse, then back to Find to do your stored find. Lemme know if this doesn't work. HTH, Matt At 02:27 PM 11/9/00 -0500, you wrote: >Dave, > >Thanks for the response.
