It's just that if you only need to store numbers from 0-255 in a member, why not use the 1 byte Byte_t type rather than the 2 Byte_t UShort_t type? That'll save you 1 byte of data for each instance of the class stored on the tree. Yours, Christian Holm Christensen ------------------------------------------- Address: Sankt Hansgade 23, 1. th.
