I think I got the idea. What the limitation is saying is, that a SECTION cannot be split, but that several SCTIONs that point to the same CODEPAGE can be put in the same file. The next question is, if these different-named SECTIONs, all pointing to the same CODEPAGE, are put in a file in a specific order, will they be allocated in the relevant CODEPAGE in the same order ? Moreover will this order be preserved when specifying multiple sources ? thanks, Peter -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
