I'm sorry Jon, but please, please answer this question:
The example is in a lengthy program written by someone you don't know...
     c             If      ValidOrder( Order# )

Please tell me what ValidOrder does with Order#.

If you answer correctly, I will forever be sworn to use procedures for every 
little function, even
a SETON LR!

Want to have the last word, eh?  Answer the above question correctly, and I 
won't ask you another.
 Promise!  <g>
