Since you pushed me to work with events a few weeks back I've found them 
very handy. I keep my events for a program in a single file so that they 
are easy to keep track of. I found that it was too easy to accidently 
use the same USEREVENT+n identifier for more than one event if they 
weren't all in one place.
