I should be proposing xxx_get_error_message. :) But IMO this is a good example of where principle purity should succumb to practicallity. ovrimos_error is shorter than ovrimos_error_message, and I do keep the name length in mind, though it might not be obvious. Also, I don't think either of them is cryptic or misleading. But, as always, YMMV. ____________________________________________________________ Cynic: A member of a group of ancient Greek philosophers who taught that virtue constitutes happiness and that self control is the essential part of virtue. cynic@mail.cz
