Tom,

That is exactly what is happening.

'=' is the assignment operator. You need '==' for the conditional (ie.
comparison) operator.

Regarding the first part, where you say you get either zero or 142059,
where are you seeing those values? TimeNum returns an array. Is the
whole array full of those values, and is it 142059 every time you call
TimeNum?

GP
