In my explanation: ch = *p++; then gets the value *p BEFORE p is incremented. I still stand by my remarks about the solutions to the original problem. Just want to set the record straight; the fingers were in motion this morning before the brain was fully engaged. Hadn't finished that first cup of coffee! My apologies... Farrell T.
