Delphi range checking is not very good in some respects. >From memory if you load a -ve number into a integer it complains that this is a range error - which in my opinion it is not. However the original use and in 95% of cases, it seems this test is passed.
I do use while debugging, however with experience I have special code to always turn range checking off on pieces of code where the range checking fails (but of course it's not actually a range error).

First thing I did. I have just noticed that the compiler options on the two projects (user versions of the same app) were set at Range Checking - ON Several projects that I have sent out recently that have not reported this error had Range Checking - OFF. This is clearly not enough to draw any conclusions from - but it may indicate something??
