David:
If you're not declaring large auto arrays, structs, or an
incredibly large number of local variables, the most likely cause of
stack overflow is endless recursion. If you have MSC 5.0, you
probably have codeview. Can you cv your program, and watch the
function calls? Can you watch the value of SP at each function
call? That ought to help point the finger.
