I know how to solve these problems using the methods you suggest - the goal actually was to use this problem as a driver to help me learn the Mathematica paradigm. I'm still trying to understand what Mathematica is (and isn't) capable of doing. D -- ____________________________ Dr. David H. Jameson Founder and CTO DigiPortal Software Inc.
