Dar Scott,

Yeah, I was in a hurry with the " dobeenvisited" I should have named it 
"doResetBeenVisited" or something more appropriate.

As far as setting the beenVisited as we leave, it is because I have 
other things to do on the card and thought that once I leave the card 
then I want the system to know I had been there. I do have a menu item 
to reset the voiceover on each card to hear it again if needed. I will 
look at it some more and see if it might be more appropriate somewhere 
else.

And the meat in Opencard is because I did this on the fly and didn't 
have time to plan it out before hand. Looking at it now it looks busy, 
if I have time I will pull the meat out and set up handlers for those 
sections.

Thanks for the reply.

Tom
