I believe that a more accurate statement might be: "Once you start thinking in terms of software structure, flexibility, and future maintenance, I bet you'll find something about ANY language that will annoy you."

Still more good news is that these things can be achieved in ANY language. --> Mike -- *-------------------------------------------------------* * Michael Roske * Sanders, A Lockheed Martin Company * mroske@mailgw.sanders.lockheed.com * (603) 885-9240 *-------------------------------------------------------* * "I'd rather be flying RC..." *-------------------------------------------------------*
