Gary, first of all I have to say how much the Vegas 5 Companion has been a help to me. It is well worth the money – the first time you have a problem it has paid for itself.
I stopped the looping by experimenting and right clicked on the file in the time line, went to switch, and de selected the check infront of loop. That did it.

No kidding the DVD has got to be the best 100-bucks I have spent in a long time – what a reference.

The dialog box first opens when you apply the text media to the timeline or when you right-click the test media and choose Edit Genereated Media.
