Bishop where a living room with TV is drawn and a man appears on the tiny TV screen and dances. This program used a special timing loop to flip back to the text page from the graphic page so that SINGLE CHARACTERS on the text page could be displayed on the graphic page. In the animation the O's for the TV controls and the HOME SWEET HOME on the wall picture were done this way. Some time back Softalk interviewed this Bishop fellow and he exposed all his secrets. However I doubt that this technique would be useful for the original poster's application. Mike Davis
