Hi from Paris,

Jacqueline,

Did I correctly understand what you put in your recent post :

> And if literal
> names are not quoted, the engine takes twice as long to execute the
> statement because of the additional lookup.

Do you mean that the statement :

If field "MyField" = "YES" then .......

executes twice as fast as :

If field MyField = "YES" then .......

If this is true, then I am glad I got into the habit
of  "quoting" all my field and button statements.

It also means that my scripts execute at twice
the speed of light  :>)

Thanks for the info.

-Francis
