Todd (and everyone else): What you are trying to do is use a variable in a command name. Unfortunately, with iListen 1.6.8 or earlier, you cannot have a variable in a command name, so there is no way to do what you want to do. There may be something that would do something similar in a future version of iListen, but I have no other information at this time. Best Regards, Chuck Rogers, Chief Evangelist MacSpeech, Inc.
