First off all, you have to define expense - cost of people versus cost of processing. Obviously a single TCB will use less CPU but a mish-mosh of a program will cost more people time should there ever be a problem or a need of a change. -- Binyamin Dissen <bdis...@dissensoftware.com> http://www.dissensoftware.com Director, Dissen Software, Bar & Grill - Israel Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me, you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.
