Well, no, the error messages just state "expected this, found that",
without actually giving a REAL hint...
The declaration would be something like this
Type tStateRecord = Record
StateAbbrev : String [4];
StateName : String [40];
InLower48 : Boolean;
end;
tStateArray = Array [1..MaxNoStates] of tStateRecord;
Var {or Const, so it's initialized only once}
States : tStateArray = ( (StateAbbrev : 'AL', StateName :
'Alabama', InLower48:TRUE),
(StateAbbrev : 'AK',
StateName : 'Alaska', InLower48:FALSE),
...
);
Various versions of parenthesis just vary the error message, either the
above mentioned "expected this, found that" or "filed xyz not initialize"...
