Thanks. That should have been phrased, "Yes, <in this particular case> I wish for a non-standard response to clicks". I was just responding to Robert's previous question. I understand that FB4 "is what it is" and that's all it's ever going to be. It is a big job for me to get my apps from FB2 to FB4. I have determined that it is too big of a job to try to go directly from FB2 to FB5. Again, I'm a full-time biostratigraphy consultant/scientist (applied paleontology) and a part-time programmer - just the sort of person who has traditionally gravitated toward BASIC. Once again, I greatly appreciate the help that you and others on the list provide. Without that help, I would have not been able to get past many barriers on my own.
