Thanks, Ivan, now I understand the naming issue. Perhaps, we really should give a name to this "triple-rule thingy". Because, otherwise, it will be the users and implementers who will introduce a name for it. And I'm afraid I can anticipate what this name will probably be... Cheers, Michael -- Dipl.-Inform.
