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.
