I do not really know why Patrick created a second TableContentLM. His procedure constructs the Knuth elements twice. I suppose that he feared that this would have side effects, and that he tried to avoid those by doing the first evaluation in another TableContentLM. > Any help would be appreciated.

Would be nice though. Regards, Simon -- Simon Pepping home page: http://www.leverkruid.eu
