I think commenting out code with # is sufficiently antisocial that you should probably do it with ########. Then it's *really* easy to pick out your commented portions at a glance. Plus it won't interfere visually with your ### blocks. And it has the additional advantage of keeping your tabs lined up. :-) Larry
