The code for this is wondrously obscure; I have been unable to figure out how to tell it to stick to the current frame. Does anybody have a recipe that restores the traditional behavior? TIA (and apologies for being unwilling to invest the rest of my sanity on wading through the new implementation), -- Bob Rogers http://www.rgrjr.com/
