Perhaps a more accurate statement is that you would ignore the datatyping that he is doing. His code would quite happily accomplish a number of useful tasks, like detecting when a garbage value was provided. He could also reuse a lot of existing code, like stuff that parses the wide variety of date formats so we can do sensible date comparisons. > I have a choice to use S-B whether this WG > endorses it or not.

You probably don't want to cut yourself off from very large sources of production-quality info which happens to have a very simple structure typed in this very simple way. After all, 'quantity has a quality all its own'. Ron Daniel Jr. Standards Architect Interwoven, Inc.
