I'm still having trouble seeing the problem you (Alex) made on the call. It's true that you can't start a process until its parameters are available, but that's not a problem unique to parameters. You can't start a process in a choose until you've determined whether that branch will be taken. You can't start a process in the loop of a for-each or viewport until you know whether there will be a document for it. The 90% case will be steps with no computed parameters. So long as these cases can be readily determined at compile time, I don't see why the possibility of computed parameters should make much difference. -- Richard
