As Charles said, true "watched variables' are those being tracked
intensively and define a breakpoint, but VW is more like an 'inspector',
therefore I think you mean...

.. if any of the inspector-visible variables change, they are updated and
highlighted, rather than update all each cycle.

Yes, to emailing the DMVW.  I will look at it tonight (6 pm now, and will be
at the computer this evening and tomorrow.

Jim :-)
PS  Don't know if you got my other email off list about being available over
the next several days for this debug.. but I will.

Not sure what you mean by this..  changes from when to when?
Step to step, or break to break?

Downside to this is to confirm settings or globals that determine
conditionals, so there can be a referal (esp TF, flags, and arrays that are
used for value sources, eg list of colors.
