A bug shows up if you do the following: 1) point to a newsgroup name on the directory screen, but don't go into the newsgroup directory 2) SHOW CONFERENCE 3) SET NEWSGROUP/ITEMHOLD=somenumber You'll get an addressing exception with virtual address=90 The fix is to add the following line to the routine newsgroup_header (in newsutility.c) right after the first executable line: if (!gap->grp_ia) map_items (curr_g); -- Lenny Glassmann glassmann@ccavax.camb.com
