I changed them to "if (case) something = value1; else something = value2;" and it cleaned up the problem. I've had this same problem with a number of other c compilers; I don't understand why, but changing the code as above fixes it every time. On the other hand, once you've gotten through a huge number of those cases, you'll start to compile the "help" stuff. That dies with an "insufficient virtual memory" error. This seemed odd to me, as I have 16Mb of memory on the machine and it seems to me 16mb ought to be adequate to compile part of a program. Ok, so I'm an optimist!! Anyway, that's the subject of my next post... Mike Newell NASA Advanced Network Applications
