@sam: i think that solution may work. jump to end of program and run from traverse, wait for repeat (so it's in the zero position) then skip ahead again (puting me at part #3 after the traverse). thanks. i wish i'da thought of that. 

@jimpinder more very intellegent information. thank you. i will see which one get's me further. 

thanks you guys.
this is the best advice i've gotten in the two weeks ive been running this program.
this forum ROCKS!!

thanks for the quick reply. it is licence but the code window supports one piece and a repeat line that referances a sub routeen that notify's the program how many times to repeat. i'm lost on how to make it go to piece number three.
