I said that it didn't have a state, not that it didn't have a behavior. That's not exactly the same thing. But I don't want to argue about it, either. It's a judgement call what's best here, and I don't pretend to have all the answers. If you're sure you've got it right ... great! -- Robert Haas EDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com
