My posting was the result of frustration with SFS. I wasn't thinking about perfect code structure. Frankly, at a certain age you care less about those things, as long as it works and the boss is happy. :-) But I understand your criticism. Ray

You can easily implement those in your program. Please don't use "signal" unless you are handling an error and/or about to leave the program. I hope I've put this nicely... Ivica
