Weird RunRev IDE Problem

[Dave]

That would be true if were consistently like that, but it isn't,  
length for instance has a function and a property. I can't see how  
it's good programming practice to make something more complicated  
than it need be.

The first thing I did was write a wrapper function for it!

All the Best
