Visit the Ada home page, at There'll be a list of vendors there. BTW: Ada is not an acronym, and therefore is never capitalized (otherwise, over here on this side of the Atlantic, we're liable to think you mean the American Dental Association). The language was named in honor of a woman, Lady Ada Lovelace, the daughter of Lord Byron and the assistent to Charles Babbage. She gets the prize for being the worlds first programmer, before there were even computers! Good luck with Ada! -------------------------------------------------------------------- Matthew Heaney Software Development Consultant (818) 985-1271
