I assume that something like my "BAR+BAZ" requires parsing out the individual names and processing each separately. It's easy conceptually, but it definitely requires more code in the macros.

But that's typically not important. Please explain to me what you mean by "multiple bit operations". Thanks. To me, it just sounds like a bit mask that has more than one bit set (and to test) at the same time. But I don't see how this scenario doesn't support that -- as it is all part of the same mask-- so, you must be talking about something else. ;-) Sincerely, Dave Clark -- int.ext: 91078 direct: (937) 531-6378 home: (937) 751-3300 Winsupply Group Services 3110 Kettering Boulevard Dayton, Ohio 45439 USA (937) 294-5331 ********************************************************************************************* This email message and any attachments is for use only by the named addressee(s) and may contain confidential, privileged and/or proprietary information.
