There are times when you would let the case: statement fall through to the next case statement. If the compiler was to put the break; at the end of every case: statement there would be an occasional problem. C language is designed to be VERY flexible but this means the programmer has to guard against little errors like the case: break; situation. Darrell --- * Via ProDoor 3.1R
