Do you know of any specific bugs in IBM BASIC's COMPILER where something might work in the interpreter but doesn't work in the compiled exe file? I have a problem: My program keeps giving me "Bad file number in 60" which doesn't make any sense, because the program doesn't even go to 60 at that point. What the program is doing is opening all 8 files at once. Someone told me that if you don't open the files in numerical order, you get an error message of some kind. Like, if files 1-6 and 8 are open and then you open 7, it crashes. Does anyone know anything about this? I'm stuck. Also, I've heard that if you goes out of an array boundary while running the compiled program, it sometimes will bleed over into another array. Know anything about these kinds of differences between interpreter and compiled? R. Chao
