Dennis,

Sorry if my last response sounded curt. It was not intended.

One of the objectives is not to add parameters. I wanted the only change to be changing the file type to special. Turns out I can't do random I/O so it won't work anyway.

OK. But it seems to me that if you're adding the parameters to the program anyway, the approach would be ideal for you. (Put another way, "you can do what you want.") But then again, it was just a suggestion.
