admitting my ignorance of the mechanics of "_append", what would it then mean to do: BLAH_append = "spanner" ... snip ... BLAH_append = "toolbox" if, say, someone does that accidentally? and at this point, i will leave this in the hands of people much smarter than me and move on. it may very well be that all of the oddities i ran across are technically valid but, for the sake of someone perusing the source, they should probably be cleaned up to prevent confusion. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
