Hi! Using the secant method, Mathematica 3.0 produces nice results with the FindRoot command. With the same starting values and options, FindRoot does not converge, however, when using Mathematica 4.0. I also have problems with old files, because the ordering of the (multiple) roots seems to have changed. Any hints or explanations? Thanks Georg
