Well thank you, Jim! I plead complete ignorance of "Document View". Most of my pitterings in a PRG, when not writing code, are usally searches for UDF calls (function names) embedded in other methods. If I could just stare at the screen area and think "where else is this function called?", and then, through the magic of alpha/beta wave amplification, and hardware built in a garage in Taiwan, and Xenon "misted" googles that receive a projection of that list: I could think my way through source code - maybe even think script into the PRG!

Then - instead of spending 14 hours a day only writing a 1000 lines of code, I could spend 14 hours a day writing 5000 lines of code - 7 days a week! WHEN WILL IT EVER END!

THe search for candidate code that "should" be generalized to a UDF is a never ending quest!

But maybe there is a reason I like "mouse-wheeling" up and down my source. Sometimes I get to the point I am staring through my monitor(you do that too?), like somehow, that "transcendental" state will have a positive effect on my "intellectual production". Yet, the call back to the tedium of having to write the code, always wins out and I return to my code monkey haunts.

I like to tell myself that "mouse-wheeling" a PRG is much needed rest (exercise?) for my eyes. If I had a therapist, it would probably tell me that my "mouse-wheeling" and "thousand yard 'stare'" are simply manifestations of my desire to avoid my true nature, which is, despite my deepest aspirations, that I, Terry Thurber, am nothing more than a "code-monkey"! My therapist would probably tell me I would be more suited to a career as a hairstylist or toy-store clerk! Go figure!

En Agada Di Vida Baby - You know I'll always be true.

Lator - I got my shorts on - going to walk the dawg - and the mow my lawn! Anybody in Toronto mowing a lawn today?:)
