   my code was pseudocode... for example "getkey" would be "ReadKey" in an   
   actual pascal program--I just wrote it here... not to be compiled but as an   
   example--at first I thought someone would just state a way and that would be   
   the end of it--still no one has come up with code to do as I want...   
      
   Warmest regards,
