no it
was me after all :) [very much so!]

I did
figure it out just before getting this, as you indicate by sticking X:= at
the beginning of the whole formula that in itself very simply labels the return,
you don't have to mention it again.
Soo
simple!! Couldn't be easier, and something I probably should have picked up
from the formula primer study.
I'm
used to naming outputs in this way:

int
X;
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2><code>
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>return(X);
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>
Thanks
for all your help with this one Roy! Think I'll do better if I stop confusing
with other languages.

can't quite see what you're getting at here. Ifit's any help I've just
finished testing my ideas on your formula and here'sthe "all-in-one"
