Help!!!!!

[Michiel Spape]

Hi, 
No problem! I'm afraid no 'dot-probe' paradigm is covered (mainly because neither Rinus nor I ever used it), but the deal about learning programming in any environment is *practice practice practice*. That is also pretty much the answer to your later question. Let us know exactly where you get stuck, programming-wise (rather than paradigm-wise).
Cheers,
Mich

it is working fine. It looks fantastic - thanks so much again
