I "almost" agree with that assesment Jerry.  However, what I wrote above is 
what is in the current manual.  However, if I had read further I would have 
discovered it was deficient. 
[quote] 
This pointer may be used with fgets(), fgetss(), and fwrite(). 
[/quote] 
I was only stating what the manual says, not suggesting anything in that 
respect.  If quoting from the manual is a "suggestion" as opposed to an 
observation I agree totaly.  That they are all I/O functions should have 
been obvious to me also, but I missed that too @@ 
Having said that I agree Tim was right that I should have stayed out of it. 
And I apologise for my testy reply. 
Highest regards, 
Vince
