Hi Randy,

Words is a function of Foxtools.fll. Since Dragan is a member of Foxtools and Dark Beer club, he assumes, that Foxtools is loaded in the startup program :)

You have to add these lines of code:

if not "FOXTOOLS" $ upper(set('library')
   set library to foxtools additive && here you may need to specify path
endif

I would also recommend you to take a look at my frmStatistics (click on my name and see my contributions). It's simple form for displaying "statistics" kind of messages. It has a Print button, which allows you to print a message. Actually I modified my own version (added a timer, etc.), but this version works and I was too lazy to upload a new version here...

Hope this helps.
