MI-L Printing Blues!

Thanks to all who gave me reason to believe (as I should I done it) there is nothing wrong with the mid$() function. It was a problem due to the way I was calculating the arguments, by increments that I thought would end up to the string length but in fact exceeded it. I rediscovered the very old
