Yep - this is why you have to be careful because it is only jBASE and one other emulation (might be ROS) that allow multiple characters. I was able to confirm the bug on NT, jBASE 3.5 but with a different outcome, Windows aborts the program and shows the dreaded: "... has encountered a problem and needs to close..." message. Right, well that explains that there is a hard and fast bug in the FIELD statement, and that is why your jBASEWORK was corrupt too with a certainty of about 90% ;-) Jim Lucian --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Please read the posting guidelines at: http://groups.google.com/group/jBASE/web/Posting%20Guidelines IMPORTANT: Type T24: at the start of the subject line for questions specific to Globus/T24 To post, send email to jBASE@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe, send email to jbase-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/jBASE?hl=en -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
