Hi Y'all,

I have a line of code in an application being used by many that probably
hit this line at least several hundred times a day.  The users are
accessing the application through a Citrix Server across the internet.

During a 25 day period it crashed the application 6 times.  Here's code
snippet.

    xPROSP:= 0  ;  xNL:= 0  ;  xTOTAL:= 0  ;  (cAlias)->(dbgotop())
    while !(cAlias)->(eof())
      ++xTOTAL
      xPROSP+= if(!empty((cAlias)->PROSPECT),1,0)
      xNL+=    if((cAlias)->TAG1== "Y",1,0)
      (cAlias)->(dbskip())
    end


Here's the error message.

Line 752 is ++xTOTAL.

The value of xTOTAL is different in each of the 6 error messages, ranging
from 210 to 2213.

How is xTOTAL being changed from a number to a character variable?

Thanks,

Oops! wrong newsgroup - see xbase++ generic.

Sorry.
