A scripted program seems to be one big SUB or FUNCTION, so I got errors 
until I changed everything into one big single code without calling any 
SUBs or FUNCTIONs. This runs good. Without a timer, of course.

Thanks for your example. This might be a solution, and this gives me 
another idea, I'll be back later :-)
