Let's assume that the function was like: foo: has [file] [ file: read %large-file.txt print length? file file ] How would one arrange to set the value of 'file to none, while still being able to return the contents of %large-file.txt ? And do it "nicely"? :) Andrew J Martin ICQ: 26227169 http://www.rebol.it/Valley/ http://Valley.150m.com/
