--sorry so curt, under deadline-- Here is what I can do already: I'm creating an item box from a database. -Select box -run script -type in item number at prompt -it pulls from database & popluates box. What I'd like to try to do is this: -Select box -run script -type in starting number at prompt -it pulls from database & popluates box and then advances one record (perhaps showing "text loaded icon"?) -click on next Box -populates this box with new current record -repeat until you hit escape or something else to end script It seems like this would be possible, but I'm not sure if the UI could be scripted in that way, and I'm not sure how to "await a click". Any help would be great. Thanks gang.
