you made perfect sense.
thanks a lot.
i found the article of php builder that said much the same thing but one of
the other guys in our team was adamant and said you have to instantiate the
class again.
winding back my brain to Uni i understood instantiate to be the bit where
the class is created via the constructor using new.
what you've suggested makes perfect sense. thanks again.
