Agreed. literary license in the syntax - I apologize. What I meant by "really, I'm serious" is that the method is intended to see if a point is contained in an element, albeit to some tolerance, but should not be called to determine if a point is just close. And thanks for " homeomorphic to a ball" - it reminded me why I'm too juvenile for functional analysis. -Ben ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
