The response of version 5.1 (windows XP) is different. The function complaints that the AccuracyGoal is greater than the workingPrecision. I changed it to BesselJZeros[0, {17, 19}, WorkingPrecision -> 200, AccuracyGoal -> 30] and got {52.62405184111499602925128538039157330012033293268689416022022217597930427828\ 762754648684690021464394162859511201371689733769604079322497857828492468394196\ 2133353884299041810304818447503504584919833908, \ 55.765510755019979311683492773461830631375339755204692353411284032074447555903\ 760267955819531736320017999503134765884257121981020700744432566113607049711143\ 161016577322056334125588486684256210677678297, \ 58.906983926080942132834406634615685585658088855756154611877678123376180933144\ 524242245417039683360710782600200307309439901713384170911994546882951657792356\ 398121691959237620775070442352712204750828927} I assume that besides the warnings, taking care of a proper WorkingPrecision value will lead to the required result. yehuda p.s. Options are by no mean absolutly independent options. First it means that you may define a value for an argumnet by using its NAME rather than its position in the argument list as happen in traditional programming languages. Options have default values, and their effect on the function are not always independent. Maybe it is a good idea that other values wil be changes according to an outside settiong of options' values but for the moment it is not the case.
