Uh Oh.. Bad news.

After I added the pointlist nodelist, my fist poll after that froze the session.

After I deleted the pointlist, polling returned to normal.

That was VERY helpful. I did not have those entries. I was only adding
the PVT pointlist. Now, I have done exactly as above with the Z2PNT.Z95
that I have. Meanwhile, I noticed that the "Format of list" had a PVT option, which I did not use. I'll see if I can screen-capture that like
you have done above:

ÚÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ¿

³ NODELIST.### 095 NODEDIFF.### NODEDIFF.Z## Diff Nodelist ³
³ ³


Above, is the way I'll leave it for a while.

Next, I'd like to add the PVT file:

..but I have a feeling that OpenXP will lock up when do a poll.

I'll try that now..

I did *not* get a lock up this time. Hmmmm.


So, it looks like this is cooperating now.


MEANWHILE, I *forget* how I managed to open up a nodelist is pure text
format from oxp. What are the steps to do that?

Good :)

Fido/Nodelists/Config

Hit the "TextEdit" button *BUT* before you actually hit the button,
press <F1> and read what it says about the "TextEdit" function,
particularly the *WARNING*.

Hmmmm.. I may not use that very often now. I didn't have a need to do editing, but I thought there was a S)earch feature in edit mode. ?

Yes there is ..... <Ctrl+Q>F ..... but you try it at your own risk.
