I set a break point at 'exit' but the call stack has already been cleared (problably by a longjmp or something) and all I get is the DPS exection handler called from application 'run' It would be real nice to know which of the 60,000 lines of user code caused the problem. Is there a place to intercept DPS client errors while the user call stack is still intact? --Bob L -- Bob Leivian leivian@email.pcrl.sps.mot.com Neural Network Development Group (602) 897-5117 2100 E.
