HELP!!!!!!!

I am nesting Execute commands in my startup-sequence.  Execute wants to
write to :T/Command-T-xx whenever I do.  Creating RAM:T and assigning T:
to RAM:T doesn't work.

changing both references of :T in the Execute binaries to T: seems to help,
but for some reason the startup-sequence still complains (with a requester)
at some point about DF0: being read-only (namely the point at which I attempt
to execute the first nested Execute script).  The relevant portions of my
startup-sequence look like this:

IF NOT EXISTS RAM:T
  makedir RAM:T
ENDIF
Assign T: RAM:T

Execute Setup1 ;Requester is put up at this point.  Clicking on CANCEL causes
               ;execution to continue normally
Execute Setup2 ;No requester asked for.
