I reckon the scripting engine will be fine with them, it's just a question of whether the programmer can keep track of what's going on.

Mighty Scripters. Just checking on general thoughts here, but, how safe do people reckon it would be, re potential confusion of processing, to be dealing with variable names that are like reeeally close together? like, say, sLine, and sLine1 for example? you reckon the scripting engine, or whatever it's called, would be totally comfortable with that? or, do people reckon one ought to avoid making variables that are so close in structure that their string names are only different by the omission of one single character at the end, would be in any way dangerous? thanks. geoff c. __________� View the list's information and change your settings at http://www.freelists.org/list/jawsscripts __________� View the list's information and change your settings at http://www.freelists.org/list/jawsscripts
