I read trough the latest news to find something to learn and got the following: > > type table is new tables.hash_table; [..] > When you derive a type, all derived operations are declared *at the point of derivation*. > Therefore, the Insert for Table is declared immediately inside your package, and thus directly visible. Does that mean that INSERT is an Operation like "+" or "mod"? Or is INSERT just a normal procedure? I can't imagine the last, but I never heard/read about an INSERT Operator, either. It would be nice is somebody could answer that question. Thanks Kai Schuelke
