Re: Instr()

Do you have *any* information that shows API exludes inbuilt functions?
Why are inbuilt functions any different from any other API?

Common usage, if nothing else.

But I think this page says it best:
http://www.sei.cmu.edu/str/descriptions/api.html

"...between two or more different software applications." Since VB is the
native application, an API is therefore anything outside of VB, not
intrinsic to it. This view would appear to be supported by several other
sources as well.
