It's the best way to learn. I wasn't making a point about arrays in particular here, more about the difficulty of zeroing in on a specific item.

I know this pops up every so often around here and I hate to chime in with a "me, too", but this list is an absolutely invaluable resource. My thanks to all the seasoned programmers who lend the voice of experience, the whiners who manage to get things pushed forward, and the newbies who ask the dumb questions I wish I'd asked. I'd *really* be floundering without this list. -- -Mark Wieder [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
