The Rescue option will try to open an editing session, thus giving this message
if TTFN thinks it is already editing.

Robin - try opening a few re-editing sessions with Qedit and let me know
whether you get the same problem - I'm using the same OLE method as TTFN
which has so far proved to be 100% foolproof.

It's possible, I suppose, that this new version of Zap keeps its windows
created but not open. Something I must remember to put in Qedit actually - I
just check to see if the window _exists_, rather than checking the window
flags to see if it is _open_.

(has zap 1.30 been released yet?)
