I have been able to devote a large enough time slice to the LSVCARDR problem today to write a fix that ought to solve at least some of the problems we have been experiencing (I say "some" because with HPO5 there are a number of problems which are not my fault :-) ). The modified LSVCARDR and LSVRDR will be part of release 1.6, and I have already sent them for beta-testing to all the affected non-EARN sites I could remember. Since the crashes are very unpredictable in frequency, I will not consider the fix to be working unless there is no (LSVCARDR) crash in the beta-test sites for at least one month. Eric
