Since the Crt code is monolithic, putting the Crt unit in a uses statement causes the error. Of the machine is over about 200 MHz, the Delay function in the default Crt unit CANNOT be called. This question is NOT a Delphi question. It should have been asked only in comp.lang.pascal.borland, and not multi-posted. There, it received fewer answers; but they would have been accurate ones. -- (c) John Stockton, nr London UK. ?@merlyn.demon.co.uk Turnpike v6.05 MIME.
