I am sorry, but I still do not understand. These are different types of things that you are now putting all on the same list? What prevents your trace functions from working today with the existing code? What can you not get access to? All you say here is "it is not easy to trace", but that does not explain _what_ you are missing and why you need to change that. thanks, greg k-h
