Oh, that is C#! I saw the "is" keyword, and immediately thought VB. :)

I haven't run accross that in the C# books I'm working through. I see now that this does a reference comparison. Looking at the C# documentation this usage of "is" would not jump to mind.

Thanks (both of you) for your responses,
