My final thought on Tag: If you control your code base: ------------------------------------- Pick ONE AND ONLY ONE use for Tag. If you use a parameter parsing library, this can be a fairly sophisticated use. Document the hell out of it. Then, no matter what the time pressure, or temptation, STICK TO THAT USE. If you do not control the code base: --------------------------------------------- If you consult for a living, and fix other's code, you DARE NOT introduce code that uses Tag. Cede use of Tag to the owner, and manage your extra information some other way. This is the only sane way to use Tag. -Ken
