I thought so too except that I had ask and answer in code that waits for the 
answer and then continues with the results obtained. 

For example, click on a line in a table, ask what should happen, and then do it 
to that line of data in that table. Kinda difficult to simulate that with a 
group without a bunch of message passing and such and breaking up the code in 
strange ways. But it will have to be done.

I am lucky in that the target audience is 32bit.

Thanks, Kee
