> Well, I am not too old but we used to do that >(increment by 10s) when programming with GWBASIC A lot of basic interpreters used to increment by 10 when using autoincrement as you wrote your code, for exactly the reasons which have been given. IIRC you can do this in GWBASIC as well, I think there is a command where you can set the increment. _______________________________________________ http://www.piclist.com View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
