If I want to view a demo of a past room so as to inform a buddy of how to complete the level I have to hit restore. If I want to see level 9 demo and I'm on level 19 this will not start me all over again will it? I'm alittle concerned about the warning when you hit restore. I just couldn't replay 10 levels!!

Well, if you are really worried about it, make a backup copy of your DROD directory. But really, there is nothing to worry about. DROD always remembers how far you have gotten. Try this: restore from the very last room in the level, the one with the stairs. Does it still give you the message? Basically it is just warning you that if you restore from a room where some of the other rooms aren't beaten, you'll have to beat them over again in that gaming session, until you restore from a new position.

Game on,

You were correct. I backed up just in case. I went back 10 levels and hit play demo and went right back to level 19. Never tried it before.
