<sarcasm> Thanks for all the very accurate, valid and verbose corrections so my code. One thing though, you neglected to quote the "/*Note - Untested code... Use at you're own risk!!!*/" which I put it there for a good reason. I'm not in the habit of actually trying to compile these code snippets before posting, and they usually don't account for every conceivable usage context, so they quite often have bugs. So what.. The newbie still gets the point doesn't he? A step in the right direction? Is it just me being paranoid, or do many of the "experts" on this forum not respond to newbie requests for help, only to wait so they can show their "superiority" by nitpicking the responses given by others? Sorry, but it really bugs me that many of my responses seem to get "shot down" by others who obviously have a greater mastery of the ANSI C standard, yet didn't bother to post their own response in the first place.
