I thought DIRECT ops would always > set IPMODIFY (as it does now). My fault. I was probably not being clear when I was suggesting that DIRECT should *act* like an IPMODIFY, but never explicitly stated that it should not set the IPMODIFY flag. The only reason it does today was to make it easy to act like an IPMODIFY (because it set the flag). But I'm now suggesting to get rid of that and just make DIRECT act like an IPMDOFIY as there can only be one of them on a function, but now we have some cases where DIRECT can work with IPMODIFY via the callbacks. -- Steve
