The continuum spectra of bursts are studied with particular emphasis placed on the search for spectral subcomponents. The spectra observed in individual bursts show significant evolution throughout their durations. The degree to which hard and soft spectra are combined in bursts and the effect this has on the complexity of the observed spectra are addressed. In particular the presence of broad cusps in spectra in the 50-100 keV range are studied to determine both the degree to which these features are present in the LAD data and whether superposition of hard and soft spectra simultaneously can account for them. Also the time histories of the power output (ergs/sec) from bursts are studied to investigate the dynamic coupling between hard and soft spectra in bursts as a probe of the autonomy of the hard and soft emission mechanisms.
