Hi Kevin, Unless I'm mistaken, that's not compliant C++ for an enum. Maybe it's a C99-ism? (I'm not C99 savvy.) Personally, I wish enum's did have that kind of size specifying syntax, like that did on my old Amiga C compiler as a C language extension... hmmm, was that Lattice C or Manx C... I don't recall now. Sincerely, --Eljay
