Then, in your error handler you can LIST MEMORY. It will show a bunch of llIsAliasOpen memvars, one at each call level, with its value at that level.

I will review the error log and see if it keep repeating. Then I can add the code to check the condition of the cursor in just a few places.
Thank you for your suggestion.
