I think I would crash too if I were given too many parameters! Now, how come C headers don't have any type of parameters? I think that would probably help the compilers generate code, and help with ANSI C :-) At least now I have NEW toolbox books, etc coming. Mine are the original 11/86 books :-( scott hutinger mmpr004@ecncdc.bitnet
