I also have found great uses for the comma operator.. it often allows you to write a for loop without any body at all. By the way, my daily work is in Ratfor and Fortran, and SORRY about posting this, but reply doesn't work at our site. -- Brad Banko ...!decvax!cwruecmp!ncoast!btb Cleveland, Ohio "The only thing we have to fear on this planet is man." -- Carl Jung, 1875-1961
