Application speed is just one factor when writing coding standards. Ease of maintenance is another. I recommend not using STORE to be consistant and I find it much easier to scan some code looking for

MyVar = SomeValue

as opposed to

STORE SomeValue to Joe, Fred, Bob, MyVar, Ethel, Bertha

What I posted on my site is just recomendations and things that I use. You may find pieces of them work for you and others don't.

>I've gone over your list - thank you. Why avoid the use of STORE? I thought there were cases when STORE was a speed improvement?
