Alas, we see the ill effects of my hastiness today! I stand happily corrected. In that case, it's even simpler: if start is not specified start = 1 if reverse start += (number of items - 1) * step Here's hoping I haven't missed something obvious again. ^_^ Regardless, I think we've shown it's fairly painless to implement. - Jason
