Lueko,

As you know I support the use of section (but I really don't care what other
people code; I'm a COBOL programmer. If it's broken and it's COBOL, I'll fix
it.)

I couldn't grasp the meaning of your last clause, above. I think there is a
problem with "peacemeal". The problem being that as far as my fairly
adequate English vocabulary is concerned, there is no such word. (And if
there was, it is pretty hard to derive what it could mean...) You may have
meant "piecemeal" and if that is the case, then I don't understand what you
mean by the SECTION being a "piecemeal solution". Please use a dictionary
or post in German if it helps...

Cheers,

Pete.
