It would help me know what system I am on. and Jeff Kell mentioned there is still the mental/actual type- ahead problem. True; there will always be a way for any of us to screw up somehow. But on the whole, I still think this is worth doing; believe it would take care of that critical moment of interactive forgetfullness for most people most of the time. Obviously Tony's and Carolyn's suggestions are good enhancements to my original idea. In fact, if Tony's idea was adopted maybe we could dispense with having to add another flag to DBUTIL for this feature; would be nice to be able to avoid that........ Thanks to all who beta tested my A.01.01 version..... :-) Ken Sletten
