And of the program I gave, which functions do you think were "ran the most?"

If the initialising functions take a long time (as they did in the example I gave,) then they shouldn't be ignored. Especially if the rest of the program doesn't take much time, and more especially if the program is run frequently. -- PJH http://shabbleland.myminicity.com/tra http://www.chavgangs.com/register.php?referer=9375
