Jenda, many many moons ago, I was talking with someone, I can not remember who, in the chatterbox; and he, I remember the person being male, called my subroutines "functions". Since then I have thought of my subroutines as "functions". It appears I have been wrong in my thinking. I do tend to have a lot of faith in the people I talk with in the chatterbox so I do not fact check them when they tell me something (unless it sounds so absurd I have to verify). This is an easy shift in my thinking unlike going from procedural programming to object oriented programming.

You are invited to change the name of your reply node to reflect the correction (functional to procedural) as are all of the other respondents. I have made the change in the title of this node.

Thank you for stopping by and correcting this minor(?) error.

Special note: This is my 300th node.

No matter how hysterical I get, my problems are not time sensitive. So, relax, have a cookie, and a very nice day!
