What, specifically, do you need a third argument for? The arcport spell from the ftp site includes directions for adding an argument to manual spells, if that's what you want (so you can pass it strings - I mentioned in a previous email, but I used this for creating a control weather spell, where the string passed to the spell is either "better" or "worse") Edward Glamkowski, Programmer Mathematica Policy Research EGlamkowski@mathematic-MPR.COM Princeton, NJ http://www.mathematica-mpr.com/ In the chapel at Biggin Hill there is a golden book in a glass case. Every day for the past twenty-five years a page has been turned. On each page one can read the names and ranks of those who took off on that day and never returned. Sometimes the page is filled to the last line. They are all Dowding's boys.
