Given you have a user getting this error, can we assume the code
normally works?
If so, is there a chance that the user has a file size greater than 2Gb?
If so, they may be getting an overflow error. I think these routines use
Int32 values so when they overflow, they will set the top bit and the
value will go negative.

I don't understand how this error can occur with FilePos.
I'm using the old Delphi I/O routines to read binary file. A user is
receiving an I/O error 131 at a FilePos(File) function. This error is
apparently ERROR_NEGATIVE_SEEK.
The file is opening successfully with a Reset() function. FilePos is
suppose to return the current position, not physically seek inside
the file.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Ross.
