But you're omitting a detail here, which is that REF is specified in terms of natural numbers, which have inductive structure, which could be used to justify choosing the list order. Of course, this is far-fetched, but that, to my mind, also holds for vector comparison you picked. -- Cheers =8-} Mike Friede, Völkerverständigung und überhaupt blabla
