We don't have a copy handy; what's the interpretation? Sorry if this's an FAQ; I just started with this language (and reading this newsgroup) yesterday. -- Jim Tomlinson BoGART Project Boeing Computer Services Bellevue, WA jdt@voodoo.boeing.com ...uunet!bcstec!voodoo!jdt (206)865-6578 "If you don't make mistakes, you aren't really trying." - Coleman Hawkins
