We've been through this already, and I thought we had it resolved (see my earlier posting). You meant for (i = ntables; i; i--) <statement> if (i == -1) <more statements> to avoid an infinite loop. Note that this will work, but what Greg suggested should also work. If it doesn't, it is definitely a code generation bug, as he surmised... Bart Massey ..tektronix!reed!bart
