Well, I'm not saying I'm doing it the 'right' way, but I tend to put a
lot of functions at the end of my scripts, with the main body of code
at the beginning calling the functions in sequence, doing any 'unique'
(only gonna do this once) stuff, between functions, then ending - the
main body of my program might be only a few lines, with all the work
done in trailing functions. So in my experience, without an exlicit
exit, the functions start to execute willy-nilly.
If that makes even less sense than usual, it's because my son re-
formatted my principle WinNT partition on my peecee last night -
where all my LW, Web and work docs are, and I'm a little depressed -
literally six months of work to redo.... :(
Regards, Steve
