I have recently run into a small problem using variant 
records. I have been forced (against my better judgement) to 
use a data structure consisting of a variant record, and in 
this variant record a field of a particular variant is 
another variant record. I already know the pain which has 
been inflicted by using such a data structure. My question 
is when I do a compare, say Var_1 = Var_2 or an assignment 
are the fields compaired/assigned field by field or all at 
once or in some other manor? Thanks.

Shawn
