Ah, a compelling argument. Thank you. But, as you point out yourself, this doesn't take away the need for foreach itself. Furthermore, if you wanted to provide *real* power, you could put the "parallel" option on the foreach task! I'll have to concede that the parallel option might be a little dangerous for general consumption, though. :-) roger __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
