Yeah thanks a lot
I'm reading through it very carefully as we speak and am now up to chapter
3. Very interesting so far.
I'm almost a complete newbie but I'm absorbing the book very well and have
already gone off and written my own small script just plying with printing
number patterns etc.

THANKS

RTFM == Read The Formidable Manual == Read The F#@$ing Manual

Depends on your mood which is more accurate. ;o)
