I'm pretty stale on trn code these days, but obviously the code had assumed that the list would never grow lower than the lowest value set during the list's creation. Of all the calls to new_list(), only one of them passes in something besides "0" as the low value, so I assume that your crash case is concerning the "article_list", which passes in a low value of "absfirst". Theoretically, no article should exist lower than this value, but I don't remember with any certainty if the code ever guesses this value in some cases and then resets absfirst value downward later on. If such is the case, I'd prefer to have the code tweak the list->low value when it modifies the absfirst value downward (rather than adding code for this to list.c). I looked around in the code and didn't see any place that might reset absfirst downward, so perhaps you could let me know in what circumstances this crash can occur? Is the list in question actually the article_list? If so, is the asked-for value also lower than absfirst? ..wayne.. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf
