I haven't used chaining in awhile but it seems to me that there was a warning about making sure you had enough memory allocated by the first program to run the second. In the case of chaining B->A->B, if B were bigger than A then you might be able to run it that way but crash trying A->B->A. At any rate, it's discussed in the TP manual on chaining, so you should look there. jim frost madd@bu-it.bu.edu
