I have never used XREF for I have never had too -- I always figure a way around it. :-) My advise, don't try to draw things to understand how arrays work -- it don't work above three indices, unless your mathematic. Think of any index as an attribute -- something that is added which produces a different slant/spin/value/feature/option/condition/goldfish/whatever. tedd -- http://sperling.com
