Get a life Jon. I type this way because it commnitactes well. Out compiler Technology isn't suuffieicently advbanced to handle: Loop Control Variable = Initial Value Unless you propran in FORTRAN, of course. But that has its own drawbacks. So what works well and is compatible with currently available compilers... Both of the below work. LoopControlVariable = InitialValue Loop_Control_Variable = Initial_Value I prefer the former. It reads better. Whichever you use, use it wisely. If you were to code the following on my project I'd fire you on the spot. Loop_Control_Variable_For_Iterating_Whosit_Through_Whatchamacallit = 1 Hyperbole has it's place, so long as you hit the mark. -- Russel A.
