Thanks! (that makes more sense now!) :-D PS: Any good links on the C++ 'friend' keyword then?

Just out of interest, how does this compare to the VB.NET 'Friend' scope? (apart from being a different language). Surely it can be done in C# then if it all compiles down to the same?:confused:

Personally, I've never worked in an environment where any code has been allowed to leave the premisis, but on another note,check out these tips from Joel Spolsky: http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/GuerrillaInterviewing3.html[^] NB: See those in Edinburgh at the Radisson for a pint or two tonight.:-D

Trying to convince the locals to drink Coopers/Carlton Draught with their haggis on Rob Burns night. Triple J webcast (http://www.abc.net.au/streaming/triplej.asx[^]) in one ear, development manager swearing in the other. PS: Beach would be good, if it wasn't -2C. I hear the surf is good round Cape Wrath tho.
