Ok, well, that makes sense. Seems simple enough to do that. I was just
curious if there was something I wasn't understanding about the TIMET
macro and if there was a way to re-use it.  Would be nice if there was a
macro event number, would be a cleaner solution, but this solution will
work fine.

Thanks for the reply!
