Maybe it's that name Tom <grin>.... I posted a similar problem I
encountered in 6.31-- there's some sort of problem in the alphabetizing
sequence. Runtime error 204, I think it says before it croaks.
I find I can drop back to the POST that came with 6.29 and get the
alphabetized multipliers. Runs very fast even on my 486-66.
I'm still hoping for a short description of how POST interacts with TR for
different contests; it would make customizing TR much easier for the
smaller contests. TR is invaluable because it is so flexible; I suspect
POST is too, but so far all I've been able to do with it is the result of
guesswork. Only found one or two sentences in the manual :-).
73 to all,
Tom K7TG
