We had the same problem where the INCLUDE file was dropped onto a samba share 
from source-safe.  The fix was to read each program entry in and write it out 
with a trailing attribute mark.  This was a problem for more than includes.  
Once I did that, everything worked OK.

It was some weird EOF condition.  Here is the program I use to fix it:

* This program fixes up end-of-item situation that causes universe
* compiler to hang on programs.
*
EQU TRUE TO 1, FALSE TO 0
*
FILENAME="OLEDB.INCLUDES"
GOSUB FIXFILE
FILENAME="OLEDB.PROGRAMS"
GOSUB FIXFILE
STOP
*
FIXFILE: *
  *
   OPEN FILENAME TO FILE ELSE STOP 201,FILENAME
   SELECT FILE
   FINISHED=FALSE
   LOOP
      READNEXT ID ELSE
         FINISHED=TRUE
      END
   UNTIL FINISHED DO
      READ ITEM FROM FILE, ID THEN
         ITEM<-1>=""
         LOOP
         WHILE ITEM NE '' AND ITEM[LEN(ITEM),1] EQ CHAR(254) DO
            ITEM=ITEM[1,LEN(ITEM)-1]
         REPEAT
         WRITE ITEM ON FILE, ID
      END
   REPEAT
RETURN
*
END

Hi Dennis,

Have you solved this?

When I have run into trouble with INCLUDE, I have copied the code into my
program and compiled.  The problem then usually becomes obvious.  Have you
tried this?

Cheers, Kate
