I still don't know exactly what the problem is but it went away by compiling with /NOOPT. Since the code I was working with is so large and requires special hardware to run, I doubt DEC will be able to use my code to find the problem. However, if you start to notice strange errors occurring in your programs compiled with 2.2 of Vax C, try /NOOPT. Jon Forrest ucbvax!mtxinu!blia!forrest
