Scott,

>the status code = 0x800e0007

    What happens it that the "fail" bit of status is set.
    Simply do "status.fail = false" and then do the compare
    to the constant. 

    Status is defined in apollo/base.h as  :

typedef union {
    struct {
        unsigned fail : 1,          /* true if module couldn't handle error */
                 subsys : 7,        /* subsystem code */
                 modc : 8;          /* module code */
        short    code;              /* module specific error */
    } s;
    long all;                       /* used for testing for specific value */
} status_$t;

                        -BS-
