Title: While Ismoving() Wend
Post by: BR549 on June 12, 2012, 10:42:16 AM

Anyone noticed in the latest Ver .062 that the While Ismoving() / Wend loop tends to lock up in the loop and crash the programs? This seems to be somthing new as I never had THAT problem in earlier versions.

Now the really ODD thing is that V.062 does not seem to need it anymore ??

Luck ? or something new in .062 ??

Terry,

I though Brian had changed the Code() operation, perhaps two years back, so that it would wait for the command the complete before returning, making the While/Wend unnecessary?  Am I remembering it wrong?  I seem to recall he added some other function to just buffer the command and return immediately.  IIRC, this was done at the request of Dave Bagby for MSM.

Regards,
Ray L.

hIYA RAY after a long search I found that Brian had been working on the While Ismoving in March 2012( the Ismoving() loop would lock up). I think the problem crepted back into the latest version(;-)
