Ena, one comment (though not on your question, which I see has been answered): Most respectfully: BULL! Keep your hands out of your pockets. We're all here to help each other, and the concept of "tutor pay" is nonsense. Ask anything you want, and don't worry about it. A wise, wise hacker spent an entire day with me back in the days of the 8008, filling me in on informatin for a college course I was supposed to teach on micros. At the end of the day, I told him I wished I could repay him. His response was that he had gone through the same thing, and helping me was just his way of balancing the debt. I've taken that rule to heart, and now consider anything information I can pass on, payback for that fellow's time and kindness. I'll wager a lot of others here feel the same way. If you MUST worry about tutor pay, ask everything you can and learn everything you can… then help the NEXT batch of newcomers to the sig. After all, we all started where you are. 8) Take care! Rick
