Yes, unfortunately. I have been programming some Intranet -applications with VBS and ASP all summer and almost not a day has passed being annoyed on VBS and hoping that I could do it with REBOL. I can't because of my superiors and yes, they have a good point there, others on our vast IT staff (4 persons) don't know REBOL and VB is the language used and best known. VB, well I don't actually hate it, but I do strongly dislike it. I who once liked MS Basic 7.0 (on C128) very much, but I was young then. Some years later I liked AMOS too, but let's not talk about it :) -- Jussi Hagman CS in Åbo Akademi University Studentbyn 4 D 33 [juhagman--abo--fi] 20540 Åbo [jhagman--infa--abo--fi] Finland
