Ah, yes I can reproduce the errors you saw. As best I can tell, the generated .hat file has machine words stored in the wrong byte-order. This means all the internal file pointers are wrong. They are supposed to be stored in network (big-endian) order, but your .hat file has them stored in little-endian order. The likeliest cause is that your platform does not implement the C-level htonl() and ntohl() macros/functions correctly. Can you tell us what machine architecture and operating system you are using? You mentioned that installation was difficult. What did you need to do that was unusual? Regards, Malcolm
