Could someone please explain the difference between
information hiding and data abstraction - Is there one?

I would be grateful for any simple small pieces of code that
help show the difference.  I have been through books etc
and as far as I can see they are one and the same....
Please help!!!
E-mail me direct too, if poss.

Thanks in advance.

J. Green
