Hi:

While trying to use this ee_demo project (using Keil uV3 and Keil 
MCB2130 board). 
Noticed -
- all works well as is, I mean when tried running the project 
  without any chnages.
- however, when only "ee_count()" is called from main(), following
  a reset. Which was to test/ verify whether or not the Flash 
  contents are retained. 
  The count (in fact both response_ee[0] and [1]) returned 0! 
  I was expecting response_ee[1] to be 0x0B as it showed with 
  unchanged ee_demo execution.

Is the flash area, which is supposed to be "reserved" being stepped 
over or reinitialized somehow. Any known cures for this issue?

Any help, suggestions in this regard will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks;
