I have to reply to this. I'm NOT an AMATEUR in working with clipper
and other programming languages. And a stupide thing like this is the 
first thing I would look for. However I also did get a stack failure
when I tried to work with a recursive procedure in Clipper 5.0.

It did crash the first time I did call the routine again.

Clipper 5.0 has some nice features like AADD, but I prefer to stay with S'87.
