Be aware that borland.public.turbopascal is intended by Borland to be
accessed only via Borland's server, which does not peer (you're using a
one-way leak); therefore your posts to b.p.t will not be seen by the
experts who use the forums.borland.com server.

And that Borland don't like crossposts in their hierarchy, when they see
them (therefore I've reversed the newsgroups line).

And that quoting 200 lines (in the wrong order) to add a trivial two-
line comment is a sure route to disrespect.
