The script might be getting ahead of the program. The left hand is grabbing for more script, while the right hand is still executing the last instruction. Then the left hand passes the new instruction to the right hand, and rightie ignores it because he's busy, dammit!

Or something like that. I'm much better at metaphors than programing. [grin]

You might ask for character -1 of a text frame every now and then, like after each row. This forces the script to wait for the program to catch up with itself while it figures out which character you are asking for.
