select( ) call related

hi,

Can anyone help me in solving the following issue.
I am using a select() call from within a while loop in which
i have to repeatedly read incoming messages on the same
socket.
I learnt that once the "select" call is executed, the fd-set
used with the call will be cleared automatically. I tried
making a local copy of the the fd-set using bcopy/memcpy
(for every iteration) before invoking the call, but am
unable to make a consistent copy of the fd-set [i.e.,
sometimes it gets copied and sometimes not]. 
Is there any other way of preserving the fd-set value even
after the select() call??
