Thank you very much for that. This solves the situation where the LC-8 version and the LC-9 version are the same (have the same lcb file). Thus you can only have widgets that use LCB-syntax/features that are present in both LC-8 and LC-9, especially no new/different LCB features from LC-9. > Kev

Usually, I can predict that a numerator is going to be 0, e.g. in 1/(x^2). I just check the value of the numerator before doing the division. In rare cases, I can't predict the value of the numerator. In those cases, I put a try control structure around the offending lines and some code to cle
