Peter,

Here are the error messages I get when I try to run KeyRing/2 under
Object REXX:

2926 *-* */
3 *-* return( ERRORTEXT( errno ) );
REX0040E: Error 40 running VRERRTXT line 3: Incorrect call to routine
REX0382E: Error 40.903: ERRORTEXT argument 1 must be in the range 0-99;
found "340"

Program has terminated. Close window to exit.

I don't know enough about REXX to make sense of this. I may try
contacting Kevin McCoy, the author to see whether he has any ideas.
Otherwise I will have to stick with the classic version because I use
KeyRing/2 every day.

On the other problem, adding/deleting characters on the clipboard, why
not use EPM? Paste the contents of the clipboard into a temp file,
adjust the text, and save it back wherever? EPM has the block editing
functions (not the right name for it, I know). You can delete columns or
move a block of text. I'll find the option settings for you if you're
not familiar with it.
