Greetings, Brian
On the 26th of November you said:
BC\ The SET TOPIC TO m.htopic line only appears once in the app.  After that
  \ you can just redefine mhtopic.
BC\ I usually have screen and procedures that can be called by a number of
  \ other screen/procedures.  In each module I include the following in the
  \ setup code and cleanup code.  By using the two memvars I do not have to
  \ worry about which module called the procedure/screen.
BC\ m.oldtopic=m.mhtopic
  \ m.mhtopic=
BC\ 
BC\ m.mhtopic=m.oldtopic
Thanks for the answer and the insight.  Looks like a good system to use.
Randy
