Unfortunately, I didn't save a copy of the bad code, so I only have the fix. Take a look for the "case EOR:" switch statement. Here's the way the code looks in my fixed version: case EOR: if (In3270) { /* begin fix */ if (Ibackp == Ifrontp) { Ibackp = Ifrontp = Ibuf; ISend = 0; /* should have been! */ } else { Ibackp += DataFromNetwork(Ibackp, Ifrontp-Ibackp, 1); ISend = 1; } /* end fix */ } break; See, it only made sense to call the DataFromNetwork() routine if Ifrontp and Ibackp were NOT equal, and I think the original code was doing just the opposite. Anyway, if you make these changes, you _should_ get a working version. -Rich ...ucbvax!trwrb!sansom sansom@trwrb.dsd.trw.com
