As you're scanning the list, you're pulling the carpet out from under yourself. Consider a list with three items, index 0, 1, and 2: [0] = A, ErrorCode = 99 [1] = B, ErrorCode = 99 [2] = C, ErrorCode = 0 _someList[0].ErrorCode = 99, so we remove it. At this time, the thing that had been at [1] shifts downward in index, leaving this: [0] = B, ErrorCode = 99 [1] = C, ErrorCode = 0 No increment idx to 1, and look at _someList[1]. You'll see that this has a low ErrorCode, so we can skip it. So you deleting as you're doing, you're skipping any item immediately following a removed item. If you just change your loop to count downwards, from _someList.Count-1 to 0, everything will work out fine. =================================== View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://peach.ease.lsoft.com/archives
