From what LawnGnome said: " I think it's a nice bit of syntactic sugar, personally. It's not something you'd ever _need_, but it's a neat way of getting your variable names in order within the inner scope if your enclosing scope is a bit messy. Plus, it's consistent with the X as Y syntax that's already in foreach and traits, which is a bonus." thanks > > > Dmitri Snytkine > Web Developer > Ultra Logistics, Inc. > Phone: (888) 220-4640 x 2097 > Fax: (888) 795-6642 > E-Mail: dsnytkine@ultralogistics.com > Web: www.ultralogistics.com > > "A Top 100 Logistics I.T.
