to lance gary re: executing 50G programs
this is Ed Von Essen and here's how
1. select FILES ( press white key followed by apps key )
the directory tree will come up
2. use down arrow key and highlight your "new" directory, then press softkey F1 'chdir'
3 your previous softmenu will be restored
4 press the var key you should see the softmenu change and display your program name
5 to execute your program, press the F key below the name of your program.
Let's hear how you make out. I have several programs written to accumulate financial data and display same . They use some of the input functions which I can't think of at the
moment. The 49G+ and the 50G are really great. Have you got a SD ram yet. The 64Megabyte provides lots of storage. Good luck Ed Von Essen

Hmm. One ignoramus to another? :-)
I think, if you have saved your program using the "STO" key (put the
program on the stack, then its name on the stack, press STO) then you
should see your program when you press the "VAR" key (variables).
Just press the softkey corresponding to the name of your program to
execute it.
