Okay, I give up.

In all honesty I don't use the LDA for new development either. It just
seemed that in the case presented it would be a reaonable choice since
the OP wanted access to data that was not being returned to his
program and seemed reluctant to change the parameters.

In the "way back" machine part of the problems I had with LDA included,

- combining two disparate vendor solutions.
- actually running out of lda positions
- not finding any current use of position x so I started using it.  Then
putting on vendor upgrade and trying to determine all the places where I
used that position, which the vendor now uses.

Then again, I am not a big fan of using one big data structure parameter
for calling programs either.
