Correct observation, the position learner, the book learner, the extended learner and the engine learner all have in common that they don't know from which personalities the data is coming from. This might be a weakness in the system the alternative as you suggested - creating separate learn files for every new loaded personality - is a crazy scenario as it might create hundreds of weird looking file names on your hard disk. Also, since 95% of the users will never change the standard settings it is a kind of non-issue for me to create such a system. My best, Ed
