Stephen Ray, Nukeboy, thanks for your info, but I still have a dellema. I tried what you said Stephen, about checking to see if the prority is set to normal when Bryce is active on the window. I was pretty sure that you were going to be right since last I checked the priority I dropped the program on the tool bar, then I checked. But when I checked it while it was active it was still set to low. For some reason I won't get any higher than that. What could be the reason?
