Can you give us more context? If the code fragment literally says: void foo() { char *arg; arg = "d+3"; if ( (*(arg+1) != '+')) { /* whatever */ } } Then, yes, /* whatever */ shouldn't be executed. But if you're doing something more complex, like passing arguments between functions, you could be making some other error that you're not showing us. Jeremy
