I see your point and I like the Eval statements, however your comment reminds me that the old way wasn't all bad. For instance, can it get any clearer than: C Add 1 CurrentYearOpenOrders ? _______________________ Booth Martin Booth@MartinVT.com http://www.MartinVT.com _______________________ "Joe Teff" <JoeTeff@earthlink.net> Sent by: owner-rpg400-l@midrange.com 12/30/2000 08:42 AM Please respond to RPG400-L To: <RPG400-L@midrange.com> cc: Subject: RE: Clever UNIX/C Constructs You find no value in keying and reading this CurrentYearOpenOrders += 1; instead of CurrentYearOpenOrders = CurrentYerOpenOrders + 1; And yes I intentionally mispelled the variable name to help illustrate my point. I don't type 100 words a minute, so not having to type repetitive information is also valuable to me.
