While I think this is something were a patch would be accepted, my main issue is that the with handling code in the compiler is somehow messy. Not necessarily due to bad coding but simply the way how "with" works. It is similiar to the proc. var code which is also one of the places only very brave people look at ;) -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
