it must have been a typo indeed - it is at the very least much cleaner to use unique names. What is more, I am not even sure that the effect you describe on the code with the typo is indeed correct (I have not used COMMON blocks in years and there are a lot of obscure areas there ...) Well, to cut a long story short: we will use unique names - period. Regards, Arjen ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
