Thanks for the quick response Oscar.

All coeff's and b's are integer in my model.

Not too sure by what you mean by "check if there are any non-zero coeff".  If there were non-zero coeffs then we'd be talking about an error in glp_get_mat_row(), right?

Everything is integer in the model.  I could see in the export function (lpx_write_pb()) where the coeff values are cast to ints, is this what you mean by 'not well handled'?  I can understand that, but the fact that I never get to that fprintf statement at all because k==0 seems like the issue here.  Any other thoughts about what I should inspect?

Oh, and thanks for writing this module in the first place, it should turn out to be handy for me,

Joey
