I'm sorry Eli if I insulted you ..... that was not my intension .....and I'm
sure that only people who have the time will answer my question ...right
..... I mean there are no one holding a gun to their head and making em'
answer ...... it's all in their own wish to help ....so if I don't get an
answer to my question ...to bad ...
I think most of these guys reading these messages ...are willing to help
...... If I had the knowledge I wouldn't hesitate for a sec. to help some
clueless wannabee .......

Remember Eli .... I'm not trying to piss you off ....it's all a matter of
opinion ...... infact ..... the first month trying to learn c++ must be the
hardest .......when the basics are understandble ....then things seem's
easier ......

Regards

Tonni Schmücker
