Exhibit A        Joint Filing Agreement dated February 11, 1994

                              Page 8 of 9 Pages


                            JOINT FILING AGREEMENT

    As  permitted by Rule 13d-1(f)  under the Securities  and Exchange Act of
1934,  Dean Witter  Reynolds Inc.,  Dean Witter  InterCapital Inc.,  and Dean
Witter, Discover &  Co. (the "Companies") hereby agree to the joint filing of
Statements on Schedule 13G, including amendments thereto ("Statements"), with
respect to the  equity securities of all  issuers acquired by one  or more of
the Companies provided that each Company on whose behalf a Statement is filed
remains at the time of filing individually eligible to use Schedule  13G with
respect to  the securities to  be reported therein. Notwithstanding  the fact
that the  Companies may make joint  filings pursuant to this  agreement, each
shall remain individually responsible for the timely filing of Statements and
for the completeness and accuracy  of the information concerning such Company
contained therein;  provided, however, that  such Company is  not responsible
for  the completeness  or accuracy  of the  information concerning  the other
Companies  making the  filing, unless  such Company  knows or  has reason  to
believe that such information is inaccurate. Each statement filed pursuant to
this agreement  shall identify the  Companies on  whose behalf  it is  filed,
shall contain the information  required by Schedule  13G with regard to  each
such Company, and  shall indicate that such  Statement is filed on  behalf of
such Companies. This agreement shall be filed as an exhibit to each Statement
filed  in reliance  thereon or,  to the  extent permissible  under applicable
rules, incorporated by reference as part of said Statement.

    The Companies  represent that,  although  Dean Witter  Reynolds Inc.  and
Dean Witter InterCapital  Inc. are under control  of Dean Witter,  Discover &
Co., these  Companies do  not act in  concert for  the purpose  of acquiring,
holding, voting or  disposing of the equity  securities of issuers, and  make
all  such  determinations  in  accordance  with  their  own  respective  best
interests or  the  best interests  of  their clients,  as  the case  may  be.
Accordingly, the Companies do not believe that they constitute a group within
the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1).

    Each of Dean Witter, Discover  & Co., Dean Witter InterCapital Inc.,  and
Dean Witter Reynolds  Inc., hereby expressly  declare that the filing  of any
Statement permitted hereby shall not be construed as an admission that any of
said  Companies  is,  for  the purpose  of  Section  13(d)  or  13(g) of  the
Securities Act  of 1934, the  beneficial owner  of any securities  covered by
such Statement, unless otherwise expressly noted in such Statements.

    This agreement shall remain  in full force and  effect until one or  more
of the Companies  notifies the other Companies  that it no longer  desires to
make joint filings as permitted hereunder or until such time as the Companies
agree to terminate this agreement.

    In  evidence  thereof, the  undersigned,  being  duly authorized,  hereby
execute this agreement this 11th     day of February 1994.
