Thank you for pointing this out. Right off the top of my head what comes to
mind is I faintly recall there are some areas when parsing that the
BeforeExecute stuff was getting utilized and apparently I didn't do it
carefully enough. I'll add this to my list of things to look into and
resolve. I agree it shouldn't be doing what it appears to you to be doing.
