HTH --- Elliot OT: You're complaining about lack of state funding to someone from Michigan??? 5 of 12 elementary schools closed permanently yesterday where I live. No it's not Detroit!

If you think a) Showing the generation of your posted error message in two lines of executable code to demonstrate the "why" of the message explicitly, and b) The suggestion to just slow down and "think first, program second" are a waste of bandwidth, then c) I agree that in this case they undoubtedly are and regret wasting my time. Just to be certain to not ruffle any feathers in the future, I've notified my newsreader to be sure to skip any future threads so as to minimize any chance to offend... --

I did in fact, replace the apostrophe with a comma. So it looks like I caused my own error then? I will try your alternative form. Steve at Intel suggested the same thing. I looked in my VAX Fortran book and could not find that aopostrophe construct and obviously wrongfully concluded that it (the apostrophe) should not be there. Is this error message that I got, variable not assigned to a label, assigned to pop up with any other constructs? What does the error message actually mean? I'm going to stop the pre-emptive edits from now on :-) Instead, run the code trough the compiler at least once as-is before doing any editing. This experience is a good example where wanting to apply what you learn is not always a good idea; especially when done too soon. Glen and others responding to this thread, sincerest thanks.

The poster did not say anything that was offensive, you are quite right. His mentioning that i'm ranting, flailing, etc., is simply useless information. What is the useful purpose of such comments then? From my perspective, it is a waste of time. So your words are not at all helpful. I see nothing in your post that would fall under the category of "solution oriented." There are very good, capable people who are willing, and have helped a great deal. RF ENGINEER55

No it's not Detroit! Elliot, Money is tight everywhere apparently. I'm making pretty good progress with the FCC Fortran, so for now, I'll stick with what I have. Jeff |
