Bonsoir Jim,

As usual, Jacque's reply is perfect.
I'll just add that command/dot (may need shift to be correct: depends  
on the platform and your system language) allows you to stop any  
running script in the IDE unless you have specified 'set the can't  
abort to true' at the beginning of your handler.
