I think the original poster may have been asking about how to set the
monitor refresh rate (e.g. 70 Hz), which is something Executor cannot
do.  Executor's "refresh" rate has to do with how often to update the
screen for programs that bypass QuickDraw.  Sorry for the confusing
choice of terms on our part.
