        Typo - The original spelling was private String paula = "**Brillant**"; :) I can only hope the story is false. Anyway, that's a fiver.

                      That's how to become a good bad programmer. Becoming an average bad programmer is easier: Get VisualBasic and... go to sleep. ;)

                          I think it's the other way around. Cut, Drag and Paste are the hard ones. Everyone knows about Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V. ;)
