Well, sad to say it, but TG's scripting language is not the best, but I
love TG itself, so sticking with it. I did alot of scripting for VBBS
and you could do alot of stuff in it, read files, cursor positioning,
made for really nice scripts.

Basically it is a last caller mod, logic was when a new caller comes
in, read in lines from the old file, remove oldest caller, add new
caller, and write file back out. I think my way around that will be to
create 5 different files (for 5 different callers), then either in a
batch file or in the script itself, delete the oldest file, rename the
other files and create a new one, then i can output each file to the
caller in order.

Yea, that is another consideration. I am toying with it, but it's been
years since I messed with Pascal, I have picked up 2 compilers for
OS/2, so we'll have to see. :)

Thanks for the input
