>>Thanks for the great tips from everyone! I was able to implement your suggestions and it worked (it's sloppy because it still dumps it to the _screen object, but creating a temp window and activating it wasn't any better, since the user still see's the window). But I'm only using it to completely scan through the app and make sure the data is fully optimized.
