It seems to me that you have a bad habit of mixing fact, opinion and emotion together in public postings. My reading of this last posting implies that I am one of those people that are trying to look smart to their peers. I believe that in my original posting in this thread I made my purpose quite clear. I want to insure that Think gets the message loud and clear - improve the debugger. A word of advice... think before you type. Bruce
