atoi question

[guysmiley]

Hi,
I have a structure that looks like this:
struct {
UINT i1;
UINT i2;
UINT i3;
UINT i4;
char* c1;
char* c2;
char* c3;
char* c4;
}yada;

If I use:
yada.i1 = (UINT)atoi(somecstring);
yada.i3 = (UINT)atoi(someothercstring);

i3 wll contain the value of i1 on some runs.

If I use an intermediate variable to get the value first,
then assign it to i3, it seems to work all the time.

Could anyone explain why this happens?

Thanks,
Scott

I can't.

Do you have a short example that reproduces the problem?
