Thanks to all of you good people! Believe it or not, my old code was based on help obtained back in May of 1995(!) I had not needed programming help since. I have to think of myself as an amateur scientist using Fortran, not to make applications to sell to users, but just to get answers -- except that I'm coding in flavors of Pascal.
I assure myself, late in the dead of night, that I'm not stupid, but as far as programming skills are concerned, I am most certainly not learned. Thanks again to you learned people :) Ko Hashiguchi On Wed, Jul 6, 2011 at 8:52 AM, Jürgen Hestermann <juergen.hesterm...@gmx.de > wrote: > José Mejuto schrieb: > > Add at beginning {$H+} to switch on ansistrings, otherwise you are >> using shortstrings which are 255 characters in length at most, and >> your lines are around 300 chars. >> >> > Instead of using obscure compiler switches (where you never know for sure > the scope and whether they work as you think) I would advice to not use > generic types like "string" but use "ansistring".
