What exactly do you mean by that? Does this also go for a pointer to a char? Why does 'far' breaks this concept down? : "Many millions of flies eat sh*t. So we should eat it, as well." or : what? This argument has never been a good one. It was not an argument. Just a statement. With all due respect, that it is sh*t is just your opinion. Maybe that of countless others too, but it is still an opinion. David
