Hi,

YES, BUT that code would have been coded with a compiler that DID DO THE 
CHECKING.

It's not the same at all!

Writing code with OS-9 "C" will OFTEN produce code that WILL NOT COMPILE 
with a real ANSI compiler!

Like this FREE one:

But you did not answer the question:

>> Did either of you get a message from another person who said "I also
>> have Ansifront source, 013 is the latest I believe."?
