Hi Kevin,

I can't say for sure because I have never used them like that, but I would not 
be surprised if it did cause problems. Binkley displays the currently executing 
Event number, what does it do around the time of the intermediate event?

As far as I can read in the Binkley docs, the events are processed squentially 
as time goes by. So Binkley NEVER goes back and process event 3 again, if event 
4 has been started for the same day. If event 4 has already been processed, 
unless it is a FORCED event or the .SCD and .DAY files have been removed. You 
will end up "between events" with no specific event being processed. But that 
should not cause dialing to take place (that I can see).

 KK> But that shouldn't make Binkley dial out to 'HOLD' nodes?

I would not expect so, because no event was active to cause that. HOWEVER, I 
also note that you have several forced events. Do you really need these, 
because these can cause issues when an event with 0 time is "missed". I had odd 
problems with the Event file when including FORCED events, so I removed them 
all, changed them to a 1 min duration, and have never had a problem since then.

Cheers............pk.
