Vote 1 for Geoff. Seriously I tried this for a project, but got loads of flak for not using The Standard (XML) so when I "threw one away" last year I reworked the system using XML. To be honest the pain was short lived - writing the parser, and since then I don't see much difference. There are some of XMLs stranger rules and all those [<>/] which look a mess to my C trained eyes but I try not to look too often. (Before anyone jumps doen my throat I wrote a parser because I am on a small embedded system) -Steve
