For the record, the Ophone bank is NOT of my creation. All I did was
download the file, comment on the uniqueness of the voices, and
repost the file as a favor when Xavier reported the problem. These
are not my Voices. I'll reload them to the ophone folder if the
proper owner does not...

Wow. Thanks for the terrific follow up (as always) Gary. Good of you
to spend time on this. It's a pretty rare phenomena to have so_many
comments in a file. Considering how long AN1xEdit has been in use I
don't think too many users have been affected by such a minor bug.
Now we know if there's a next time.
Regards,
Jon
