Thanks for all your help guys. I am now using V3.00 and have done what you suggested. I haven't seen the error again, so cross fingers smiley

Richard, when you said that line numbers are slower what did you mean exactly? I thought line numbers were viewed by the compiler like labels... just that every line has a label. Will it actually make my program slower?

It can, yes (in LBB; I can't speak for LB). It all depends on where the line you are jumping to is. If it's near the beginning of the program then using a line number may be no slower than a label (it may even be faster) but the further into the program the destination is, the slower using a line number will become. With a label the location of the destination makes little difference to the speed.

Oh, thanks Richard, I didn't know that. Clearly I need to go to programming Boot Camp! wink
