I spent over a year learning C++, so I could be honest in saying I didn't like it. If you don't give something a real try, then you're like the 3 year old who says "I don't like it, what is it?" > > Best Regards, > Christopher Nehren -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include C & Java programming, FreeBSD, chuckr@chuckr.org | electronics, communications, and SF/Fantasy.
