If memory serves, pointers to member functions were not part of the language prior to cfront 2.0, and are not in Stroustrup's original book. You need a recent compiler and reference book. There have been numerous significant language changes since 1987, including changed syntax and semantics, and staying with an obsolete version of C++ will only lead to further confusion. -- Steve Clamage, TauMetric Corp, steve@taumet.com
