Heya, legendchyke. Welcome to TSDN!

Changed thread title to better describe the problem (did you know that threads whose titles do not follow the Posting Guidelines actually get FEWER responses?).

I'm going to go ahead and move this thread to the Misc. Questions forum, where our resident Experts will be better able to help you out.

What's the context? Are you writing a program? What programming language are you using?
