If taken in conjunction with tidying up the IEEE C standard consistency then dropping what is basically the wrong use of sizeof makes a lot of sense? Eventually using sizeof for the physical size of elements in line with it's C use would be more consistent. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk
