Well, I said if that time was shorter than the time for it to execute the clear then it was worth it, but if not, it was not, it appears that the time for the RAM to clear is longer than the time for the program to run, and thus the suggestion has no merit. I thought I had implied that that could be the case in my post. --Brendan --- "Rejection out of hand of all but one's favoured alternative may cost you dearly in one way or another." -Russell McMahon -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 6.5.8 for non-commercial use iQA/AwUBPWLPsQVk8xtQuK+BEQIe4wCglCniLATsKlb++LRCwQllpLmiAG0AoPDK 2q+3UkJDlYnrZoHr89mqVnhJ =ZlSk -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- http://www.piclist.com hint: PICList Posts must start with ONE topic: [PIC]:,[SX]:,[AVR]: ->uP ONLY!
