Ah, brilliant! Is there documentation that does make those distinctions? It says "Check the class documentation for additional details" but I click the link for NSMutableData for example and the word 'thread' does not appear on that page. Having more granular categorizations is really needed, and apparently lacking. -- ____________________________________________________________ Sean McBride, B.
