Even if it does, the sum is promoted as needed, and so is generally an int in the range 0x00 to 0x1fe. Masking off the bits is, in practice, an effective way of shutting up compiler warnings about truncation. -- James ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
