This is a cope out, but it's in the latest C and C++ standards. The final releases are not available for download. Draft versions are available or you could try to find a book that has the latest C and C++ standards. You can purchase the standards from your national or state standards association. >I ask, because I want to know what other changes may be documented >in the same place, because I could do with knowing in advance what >has changed rather that have to spend an age trying to figure out >why my code won't compile anymore. In order to try to future proof yourself you may wany to have a look at the GNU C Compiler collection home page as the compiler is still being updated with each release to be more compliant. BTW Even MS .NET is not fully compliant, but it allot better than MSVC 6. GCC url:- http://www.gnu.org/software/gcc/gcc.html Andrew
