What can I do to make it work if they have different lengths?
the simplest solution would be to write to a new file, you could store the
new text and write it to the hosed file at the end of the loop but I don't
know how that would work with large texts... or you could do the length math
in the TID handler.
The error trap's close access should appear before the dialog to work
properly, also 'error' is more flexible in what it can display than
'display dialog'.
