Mark,

Thanks for the feedback.

I'm not sure I understand the problem you speak of. When you double 
click a trial replacement (a black letter in the encoded field), the 
black letter disappears in the encoded field but is place back in the 
rack  as a black letter.

The original coded letter is restored and it should be red as it was 
before the trial replacement--it should the same as all the other red 
encoded letters. The code line that does this is:

set the textcolor of char i of line 1 of field "encoded" to red

It should be red because it is still a coded letter like all the rest 
of the coded letters in red.

I have a feeling that I haven't followed you correctly.

Jim
