to echo Joe, what exactly is "blowing up"? unrelated to that, why allocate heap space for a copy of the *pszRecord string? could you not simplify the method by examining the string in place (declaring 'const CharPtr pszRecord' for good measure)? ...steve "Fitzpatrick, Joe" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Well, one thing that stands out is that if the pattern "," does not appear, > you read past the end of the allocated block.
