If Comeau didn't compile it (nor did gcc), in all probability it's illegal code on your part. (I've never caught Comeau up in a mistake, although I'm sure the language lawyers out there could if they tried hard enough.) > I have no other compiler then gcc right now. my other compilers are so old > they are useless. > however, I am reworking the code to use indexes instead. it's harder and > more error-prone because I don't remember how the code works.

I consider that > basic functionality. :-( There are several thoughtful c++ experts on comp.lang.c++.moderated, and one guy in particular who has participated heavily in the standards process. They could probably give you some sense of whether iterator references are a bad idea (and why), or whether they're potentially a good idea, but what issues might be keeping them out of the language. Or, as Ruben suggested, if you prefer the forum format to news groups, you could look at stackoverflow.com. Not a criticism, but stackoverflow is more generally about programming, and not narrowly focused on c++.
