I've spend many frustrating hours restructuring programs to get around this problem that could have been solved in a few minutes with forward referencing. Some may argue that this was just bad planning on my part, which is probably true. Still, it would be a nice weapon to be able to add to my Euphoria arsenal...even if it is only used to fix structuring errors on the programmer's part. :) > I think that the interpreted nature of Euphoria precludes access to > pointers, although I remember looking at a strange dump once and <snip> Once again, we are in agreement. While pointers can be very useful in certain instances, I haven't yet found a case where I couldn't work around it. -- ______ _______ ______ /_____/\ /______/\ /_____/\ \ ___\/ \ ___ \ \\ ___\/_ \ \ \ \ \/_\ \ \\ \____/\ \ \ \____\ ___ \ \\____ \ \ \ \/___/\\ \/_\ \ \ /__\ \ \ \_____\/ \______\/ \_____\/ S003CBS at ALPHA.WRIGHT.EDU
