Just a small diversion to lighten this up a bit: - Any program can be shortened by one line of code - Any program contains at least one undiscovered bug Therefore, any program can be reduced to one line of code which doesn't work. I have often found this of comfort in a long programming career. -- ....................paul "Don't be so humble. You're not that great."
