RE: Re: Renaming of instances and SubInstances?

I raised this back in the days of V1.1 and it was generally agreed it would
be SubInstance name=state. This is how I have coded all my stuff since. I
do
however also have things like the following in my targeted world
{
Value=On
Timer=00.00.10
}
Here the message is targeted and the values pertain only to the matched sub
instances therefore the body is not specific. This is in my relays schema
not the new basic one.

Hmmm, yet another twist......
