Ok, but once I sent a code snippet to Staz and he said that he had to  
'bit his tongue' about my code.  You know, I didn't appreciate that.   
I'm not the expert...

RP - I got six of these warnings from the LOCAL below and they all  
went away when I used VAL&() instead of VAL()

In function 'EditChartInfoDiag':
