I stayed away from Evaluate[] because it only works on the outermost level, i.e. Function[{c}, Evaluate[a] + Evaluate[b] + c] will not work. In some cases it is not possible to evaluate the complete body of a function. Here is a somewhat artificial example: Module[{a, b}, a = 1; b = a + 1; Function[{x}, a + b + # & /@ x]] Szabolcs
