Every time I open my mouth I put my foot in it. :) My search of http://www.computerweekly.co.uk/ didn't show any articles from this year. The latest Ada article found by the search is from August 2000. This also mentions an increase in the demand for Ada skills, based on analysis of job adverts in the trade and national press. -- Regards, Simon Pilgrim
