We're writing a PASCAL application in which we'd like to use $RMS directives to open and copy files. However, we're stuck at the point at which we try to open a file; we get "invalid FAB" or "bad XAB address" errors. Can you help? Please send a pascal fragment which sets up a FAB and opens a file successfully. Any and all suggestions, admonishments, tips, hints, and warnings will be appreciated. Thank you. Please send directly to: dneiman@carleton.eduP.S. I suspect we're not supplying the proper address of the filename, although we've tried several approaches. We're running VMS 4.5 and Pascal 3.5.
