[comp.protocols.appletalk] Query on using AppleTalk from Lightspeed Pascal

Hello,

     I am trying to use the appletalk manager (with its attentent protocols)
from Lightspeed Pascal.  Every time I try to use the APLOpen function (or
whatever it's called--the first one you use) I get an error code in return.
I believe the error was -196.  

     Can anyone furnish me with a small piece of working code that does 
something simple like send an integer or something to another node?

Thanks,

--Roger

	If you have not used the "ATPL" resource (which should be on one of the
LightSpeed disks), then this is your problem.  Add the contents (resources)
of this file into your application or System Folder, preferably your 
application.  The high levelAppletalk routines are not (or were not) in ROM.  
The ATPL file contains them, or provides the interface to the lower 
level drivers.
