Amy, re: "Java ... considering its an interpretive language?" All modern high-level PC languages are "interpretive" in nature and getting more so by the day. Whether it be "C", "VB" or whatever ... modern applications spend most of their time executing external library routines and very little time executing code compiled from the meticulously hand-written source code. In the end, there isn't much difference between an ancient BASIC program translating 10 PRINT "Hello World" into a zillion of machine language commands or a compiled "C" program which calls the General I/O library to perform a similar function. When it comes to performance, it's the efficiency of the called routines that matter ... not the way in which you call them. Craig
