well, assuming you've got b and c defined somewhere earlier, all I can

Yeah, they are, I should've ssaid that earlier. b is passed, c is malloced.

say is that h isn't changing anywhere, so if it wasn't null at the start, it never will be null.

That's what I was looking for. I'd forgotten the h=h->next;

then again, there could be more to your code happening later in the while loop (which isn't terminated so far).

Yes it is. Isn't it?
