hi again everyone,

I was looking at the java.util.Dictionary descriptions  and noticed 
that the method elements() returned an Enumeration which is an 
interface.  What exactly does that mean???  how do you return an 
interface?

I know I have been  asking what must be trivially obvious questions 
and if anyone can refer me to documentation where I might answer 
these questions (I have looked) it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again,

Walt
