Beware I am writing this in the best intent. Ok fooled around enough. The real problem is the implicit declaration of variables of course. I feel that it should be hidden which means it should take place after the RHS evaluation, but in practice it takes place before. Well I can life with that :) Cheers Robert > > -- > Christian Neukirchen http://chneukirchen.org > > -- You see things; and you say Why?
