Thanks a lot Peter, it's the answer i m looking for;)
Just one thing:
a method, for me, is 'function or procedure' from an object
a function (standalone one) is some instructions that returns a result
a procedure (standalone one) execute instructions without necessary 
returns result

It wrong or old scool ?;)

Anyway thanks
