Is it repeatable. I wonder what theincorrect argument was? Maybe the memory got clobbered somewhere. Actually, while thinking about this it occurred to me that we are probably wasting a few cycles reopening the archive where we don't need to - it should only be necessary where we are restoring a data member, ISTM. I'll look at that further. cheers andrew
