You could always print the on-line books :) I'd recommend Barnes /Programming in Ada 95/ and Cohen /Ada as a 2nd Language/. In addition to AdaWorld, AdaPower (www.adapower.com) is a good site. The "Books" link might be of interest to you. -- Jeff Carter "Why don't you bore a hole in yourself and let the sap run out?"
