OK les, we are talking about the same thing. I know that getStringRes is just for the different languages and stuff. But what I want to know is why'd you advise LadyB to change the internal name for lights? I can't think of a reason to give lights a new internal name, but if there is one, I'd like to know before I finish up my pack. All my lights have unique display names, but the internals are untouched. Is there something I should know? cheers mac
