thanks again for that, great help, so an assignment at top, outside of the case would fix that, but I do need to keep the value/s so, as always seems to be the answer, wrapping the whole thing in the clock edge will be best ? I can't help thinking in software and want to use a variable to back up and restore! will I ever be free of that mind set? the phrase '2 process state machine' directed further study, I found this paper http://users.utcluj.ro/~baruch/media/ssce/labor/state-machines.pdf which covers state machines in general, but very much in the context of VHDL . I would reccomend a read for beginners looking at state machines Thanks again for your help Pete B.
