I couldn't agree less :) The advantage of exceptions cuts both ways. The designer of the called code gets a clean way to handle error conditions without having to worry about what the caller needs to do about them and the designer of the calling code gets to separate exception handling from the normal flow of execution in a way that makes both code paths clearer. -- Andy Armstrong, hexten.netThere's stuff above here
