error in revDatabaseQuery() causing recursion of parent?

[Ralph DiMola]

I don't know if all the database stuff I do has any parallel here but when
debug stepping after a breakpoint if I stop execution(click the square) the
app take off at some point in the call stack and goes crazy.... sometimes. I
can't get a handle on it to submit a bug report yet.

By the way I haven't seen the "shadows another variable" bug since I went to
LC 8.

I don't have enough to nail this down, and if I file a bug, it will just be
closed.  But have others seen something like this?

I have something to the effect of

revDatabaseQuery(,,a[b][c][d], theCommand)


I eventually noted that "c" wasn't actually an index variable, but rather
cNo or some such.

upon hitting this line, which would (I presume) feed either empty or a null
as the database number, a bomb to the last line occurs.  Unacceptable, but
I'm used to that one.

Rather than stopping, or returning to the top level routine, however, the
top level routine (either this one if I called it directly, or the routine
that called it) begins execution again at its beginning.
