SOLD!

You must be a salesmen -- and a good one, at that daxim!

I'm all in -- on this one, anyway.

I really appreciate all the time, and effort you put into elaborating this for me. You made a really good case for it's usage (the Module).

I often struggle with KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid). Now that can go two ways; on one hand, it's really simple to make use of a Module, and it makes development, and time, a snap.

But what about flow. I mean keeping it linear, or synchronous. Things look easy to follow, are a snap to diagnose, and generally run faster. Warning; I should probably confess; I started programming in assembler -- see; was my first language.

Anyhow, because of this way of thinking that have (flow). I curse those that espouse OO, and all it's gloriousness. I remember hearing about it when it first started, back in the early '90's, and thought; boy, somebody sure bought the bill of goods there. H3ll, the closes thing to OO in assembler, is a macro.

OK I guess it has advantages in large applications. But I still look at it with a great deal of scrutiny. So I guess this line of thinking might be considered by some, to be a hindrance. But that's the way it is with me, until I'm convinced otherwise, I guess.

I'd really like to thank you again daxim, for all the time, and effort you put into this. Thanks.
