Well, I would *definitely* learn how to put a breakpoint
in your program, and I would have a look around just before
and after you read this line. Maybe just read bits of
the line. The answer is probably there. Assuming, of course,
that this is where the problem is. It isn't always. :-)

Cheers,

David
