No, you're not nuts.  The software really is limited in some very stupid,
arbitrary and annoying ways, IMHO.  But hey, it's Windoze software.

We see this on both Windows 98 and Windows NT 5.  Do we have to install
Windows 95 to see the full functionality of this programming environment?

You are seeing the full functionality of that programming environment.
If you want to get at the full functionality of the RCX, you need another
programming environment, like one of the ones listed on the web page.  I'm
a fan of the NQC tools.  Does your daughter know C?  :)

Maybe I'm nuts. There seem to be some limitations in this RIS system.... My daughter (11) and I immediately ran into a 15-block limit in the RCX coding environment. On further inspection, we find we can extend this using My Commands, Sensor Watchers (...) (26 years ago, 3-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.loc.us.ca.cva)
