I have some comments to state about writing to the printer: Since the person who needed help was using TP 3.02...He cannot use the TP 4.0/5.0/5.5 printer unit (uses printer) as some people have suggested because TP 3.02 does not support units... I was also wondering why no one suggested using the DOS 'lpt1' or 'prn' *file-like* interface to peripherals ??? Doesn't TP only run on PC's using PC-DOS/MS-DOS ??? Also, a print-out can be made by re-directing output to the printer in the DOS operating system using the external command "MODE.COM" => A>mode lpt1 := con I believe is the correct command.

Although I have never used it, there is Turbo Pascal for the Apple Macintosh.
