I'm always willing to see my mistakes revealed, if it can be done so eloquently and politely. Unlike some people in this thread, you've been both eloquent and polite; thank you. I still maintain that hardware fsin and fcos are valid and valuable for certain classes of applications, and that we need better options and documentation -- both of which I'm more than happy to work on. I look forward to your future comments. ..Scott
