Thank you, but ...

I do not think of the above as particularly clever; it is

simply something that I worked out to avoid nulls. I happened to

think that way; you did not. With something else, it may go the

other way. Because we can communicate our

discoveries/solutions/what-have-yous, we each end up with more as a result.

This is a big reason why I like forums and lists.

On another point, I had an icase() function about five years

before Microsoft added it to VFP. Except for that Microsoft's

version has selected parameter evaluation and mine has all parameters

evaluated -- not something programmers can control in the VFP

language -- our icase()s work the same.

I wonder if Microsoft came up with the idea themselves -- not

that difficult; it seemed obvious to me -- or glommed onto my idea

(which I had posted publicly). Either way is fine with me, just as I

do not mind anyone using the above bit of code.

Sincerely,

Gene Wirchenko
