Message-ID: <328@caus-dp.UUCP> Date: 10 Dec 87 16:59:08 GMT Organization: USPFO for CA - Data Processing Div., SLO, Ca Lines: 35 Here is a fragment of what I'm having problems with... TYPE st = string[255]; mn_l = ^st; ... if i < active^.menu then begin gotoxy(1,1); insline; WRITE(mn_l^); active^.menu := i end end; ... and I am getting an: Error 113: Error in statment with the cursor on the W in WRITE. I have tried commenting out both the statments before and after the WRITE with WRITE being the error every time. When I changed it to WRITELN, it worked fine, but the WRITE statment bombs during compilation every time... Any ideas? I can fix it by using other changes, but this is the most efficient in the case and its a problem that I'd like to know about... Oh yea, this code works fine under TP3.0 Marcos Della -- ...!csustan ->!polyslo!caus-dp!marcos | Whatever I said doesn't ...!sdsu ---/ Marcos R.
