In my opinion, this is a very good idea. I continually remove imports when I think they might not be used anymore. Sometimes I'm right and sometimes I'm wrong and the compiler tells me accordingly. It would be nice to have a warning for unused imports to save the tedium of a redo. >From a code understanding point of view it helps not to be obfusticated by unused imports. beers Leandro for picking this up, Justin
