Jerry, I was able to duplicate the silly bug in Turbo. And IT IS a bug - It DOES NOT do what the book says it ought to do, despite what all the mathematicians say. On the other hand, just for kicks I tried defining my own frac function and THAT worked per the manual description. What I used was the expansion they give in the book for frac on page 131. What a pain - why didn't Borland do it that way to begin with? I wonder what Borland's update policy is? I remember asking them about that when I ordered the compiler. Never did get a reply. Well, as they say, caveat emptor... Mark -------
