I think thew word here is "precise", now is not 100% precise, but it is correct as it can describe a given moment in time, you know, the most precise clock is the stopped one, it returns a 100% accurate time 2 times each day :) -- Best regards, José _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
