Wayne,
 
All my messages DID have an (%E) at the end...with no characters after the  
(E). I just brought my msgs in from last years CQWW RTTY (in the old WL 
ver) to  the new version and when I did that for the RTTY Sprint over the  
weekend MSG box msg did not appear. All worked OK. I wouldn't want  anything 
after the E!
 
I just opened the set up messages again and hit "no"...the cursor went to  
the first (F02) line...all is OK there. And it appears every time I hit OK 
when  trying to exit the msgs setup screen. Ver. 12.08C

If you answer "No" to  the message box "do you really want that?" the
cursor is placed on the  (first) message that has a %e not at the end. 
Since you don't post a  reason you want a message to have characters
after the %e, its likely you  really want to fix this as there will be a
problem later: you're  going  press f-Keys and complain that the message
you wanted to send  did not get sent (because the Rttyrite window is
instead sending the left  over characters after the %e in the previous
f-key you pressed) and you  have to press another f-key and WL sends the
wrong message,  etc.
