RESTRAINING THE PENCIL IN REV - RESOLVED

[Joe Lewis Wilkins]

Hi Jacque,

Well, my intuition about not closing the stack was correct, but it  
wasn't working before because of a failure of my eyesight to pick up a  
space I had put in the stacks name. Once I discovered that and  
backtracked to remove the "close this stack", things work as they  
should. This vision problem of mine will eventually be the death of  
me. (no smile - for real!)

Thanks to everyone for their endurance. Sure is a good thing I've got  
a big screen and can usually pump up the font size. Some things in Rev  
are set to small size though and can't  be changed by me. ARGH!
