Well, I am not sure what I did, you got a different effect so over to tech 
support...  what is the correct usage?


BTW V3.1 is still working fine. The only noticable change is the code 
generation leading to a small speed gain. On examining some code I was 
surprised at the efficiency of the thing, handcoded assembler wouldn't have 
gained much. Well done Clarion.

There is an oddity with VID (which hasn't crashed so far, it wasn't common but 
it did occasionally) involves incorrect breakpoint handling, for example:

  IF x THEN
a   y;
b ELSE

A breakpoint at (a) will not do anything, so it must be put at (b)!
