Mark;

Couple of questions:

Over the weekend, I wired the doors to the interface card that I have, and using the
port I/O calls, I was able to setup an event that shows me when the doors are closed
and locked.  

Under State-Holder, would it be too much to add Locked/Unlocked?  Or is this something
I can do with the custom definitions?

Also, is there a function that will allow you to do logical and/or functions on a variable?
 Something like:

Do          door var          and        8

This would set a flag if the variable contained a 1 in the 8's place.

As it is now, I am using several lines like:

Do                 Door var         Set              Interface 1 a

BEGINIF       door var          Is GE          8
then               Front Door     Set              Closed
Do                 door var         subtract       8
ENDIF
Else               Front Door     Set              Open

BEGINIF       door var                 Is GE          4
then               Front Deadbolt     Set              Closed
Do                 door var                 Subtract     4
ENDIF
Else               Front Deadbolt     Set              Open

Or if anyone else is doing the same type of thing,  Let me know....

Scott.
