If there is, I cannot find it. {$H} does nothing and I re-read the portion of the docs that deal with the sting types again and I don't see what I'm doing wrong. If I declare "stmp: ansiString;" then the executable compiles and links fine but the strings don't actually work. For example, I "readln(txt,stmp);" and stmp only receives the first 255 columns of the file. -Alan __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo!
