    Hello All!

    Just done a small mod (042) that will sort all found *.ECO files and that will process them in sorted order.

    So if you are taking over an echo then the method is to:

    Send in MOD-UPD with (your password) and COMOD1 as you, with the normal echotag.eco name say FRED.ECO.

    send in a second one as well again with the above details changed but this time
    with YOU as the MOD and FROM but this time change the name of the file adding
    a number say 2 so in the above it would be FRED2.ECO.

    Now if you want to go the full hog send in a 3rd (FRED3.ECO) with the
    COMOD1 DELETE to remove you as a Comod as you are now the mod.

    They will be processed in alpha sorted order so that FRED 1st and FRED3 last.

    Bit of a fiddle but will work all on one pass providing you don't mess up the keyword changes.

    Good idea! You play the fiddle quite well.
