Jan and Robert,

thanks for your replies.

I was not aware of the fact that there is a difference between these two  
;)...and that top/bottom
expressions are in any way special from other expressions. Maybe I missed  
something in the documentation?
I'll have a look into the issue.

Robert - thank you for the insight into the PDK. Doesn't sound too good,  
though.

Have a great christmas time ;)

Harald
