Mark,

I think it probably is enough to draw conclusions from. We traditionally
developed with Range Checking Off and when we turned it on we found several
places where range check errors occured. These range check errors didn't
affect the program executation and didn't cause exceptions (otherwise
testing would have found them) but they were legitimate problems which we
have since fixed.

I would guess that you are encountering the same thing. If you haven't fully
debugged your program with range checking turned on then there are probably
some subtle range checking bugs.

As a short term solution (and assuming the range check errors don't actually
matter) then you could just turn range checking off, recompile and send the
software out again.

David.
