If you know the upper limit at compile time, a set could be good. It has a maximum size of 256 elements, though. For larger sizes, use a TBits object. It's like an array of Booleans, but each element only takes up one bit of memory instead of eight. See the help file for details. -- Rob ------------------------ Yahoo!
