Not sure, but I do very specifically remember my computing teacher referring to n parameters, and the nth parameter in a function. I clearly remember him suggesting "oneth", but ignored him, thinking this is probably just the same crazy addled mind that brought us 6 months of binary, and the phrase "Computers are electric. They need power to work." But then I flunked out of Computing, so what do I know..? -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

How the ****** this question was sporned? Well, first i had the code where only 9 of the parameters would be accepted. the string was like "1st2nd3rd4th5th6th7th8th9th" and the code to extract this with mid$() was strange enough. Then i thought to expand the parameters to accept up to 24. Had to insert a space before, (hey i see now i can add 0 instead of space ... !) so the first 9 numbers has 4 chars too. I wrote the string up to 20, then the question was, is it Twentyone or Twentyfirst ... th ? So i thought, it is easier/faster to ask people who natively speak english instead of learned thinking. Surely, with a bit of longer thinking it would be obvious. (and if i had entered the correct search term in google, which i did AFTER i asked the question here ...) Anyway thanks for the replies XD

Ah right, English isnt your native tongue... Makes sense now! To be fair, English is my native tongue, but for some reason, none English people tend to speak it better then we do! heheheDabz -=-=- Intel Core i5 6400 2.7GHz, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 (8GB), 8Gig DDR4 RAM, 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD, Windows 10 64bit
