That's a great suggestion, thanks. I re-ran the tests, all 4 with WITH_PERL defined, and then before and after _PERL_REFACTORING_COMPLETE and the 2 WITH_PERL INDEX files were the same in each branch. Different than the ones generated without WITH_PERL obviously ... So yeah, a pointyhat run is almost certainly a good idea before actually making the change, however 'make index' was the canary in Mark's original coal mine, and fortunately that bird is still singing. :) Doug -- Improve the effectiveness of your Internet presence with a domain name makeover! http://SupersetSolutions.com/ Computers are useless.
