If they are of normal size it succeeds, and continues to the next bit where it allocates memory and returns, and then the calling function continues on until it fails and loops again. The question is really, why does the calling function loop if the first time failed? Shouldn't it return an error? -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Stephen Gran | I want to marry a girl just like the | | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | girl that married dear old dad. -- | | http://www.lobefin.net/~steve | Freud | --------------------------------------------------------------------------
