Yes come to think of it, references could be a compile time thing, with just the objects themselves having a runtime effect.

In 1, prodFB is merely an alias for form. I wouldn't expect any runtime difference. But since 1 requires less typing, I would expect it to be more development time efficient. ;-) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andrew Hill" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Ummm.
