Re: Driving me nuts, need one second of your time

It's not absurd at all. What is absurd is that you're coding without checking for any error conditions :-) As a rule of thumb, if a function returns a success flag, check it. it'll immediately cut out about 90% of all "weird" errors. cosmin laslau wrote:

It's driving me nuts. I'm about to introduce my computer to the pavement 40 feet below. Thanks in advance for whoever sees what I am sure is a glaring and obvious flaw in the coding. I've been looking at it for an hours and just can't get anything from where I'm standing, maybe a different perpective will help. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp.
