Right. It *is* curious, though. You can find out what instance is involved by looking at Intervals.hi; the instance decls in interface files say what "$dn" they are attached to. What's puzzling me is that not much time should accrue to dictionaries. precisely because they are of no help to programmers. Unless perhaps its the code *inside* the instance declaration... that might get the dictionary cost centre... Hmm Keep us posted. Simon
