Static Graphic - Changing Script

[Kris Wile]

Chuck,

Thanks for the help.  I finally figured it out.  I needed to "set t <time1>
<time2>" before I defined any variables.  Then just change the time prior to
defining each new variable.  Similar to what you were doing here.  Thank you
nonetheless.

Kris
