Exactly; that's why I asked "how would I solve this", instead of "how would I write note()". > However, a macro could do it.

But that seems to turn off all warnings during the compilation of the expression--I only want to get rid of the (expected) 'uninitialized' warning. Will there be a way to do finer-grained control? --Dks -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
