C# is probably more like Java than it is C++, and also requires the use of a runtime environment (CLR), whereas C++ is native code and needs to be compiled for the target platform. I should have mentioned there are some non-Microsoft implementations of C#, notably Mono, which does allow some cross-platform compatibility: http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page That about is the limit of my knowledge of C#. Another benefit of C++, however, is that you can post questions to this exalted list about the language, whereas C# is considered off-topic :-) -- Brett ------------------------------------------------------------ "In the rhythm of music a secret is hidden; If I were to divulge it, it would overturn the world." -- Jelaleddin Rumi
