Second to that would be a (if blah > rah; print thing; blah = 0) ...as your tests indicated. On hard to read/complexity/whatver... I would argue that for a seasoned developer, using boolean logic isn't anything tricky, nor hard to read when used appropriately. If the hex figure scares you a little, you can throw it into calc.exe to get the value, or even just comment it in. Anyway... good work, all we need is a test to proove once and for all that VB is superior to C#. :P -- Les Hughes <mailto:l...@datarev.com.au> l...@datarev.com.au
