				Actor is giving me an "Improper literal
number format" error at the following line in my code (the
initialization of a dynamic menu):

act3 := new(MenuItem, "&Replace...", SEARCH_REPLACE, #search_replace);

the error message points to the space between the 'e' ant the 'p' in the
"&Replace" in this line . needless to say , there is not a literal
number in the entire line ( indeed , there is not yet a literal number
in the entire method , nor CLASS ) . the error also occurrs when i try
to reformat the text ( i.e. pressing Ctrl+R in the Browser ) . also , if
i put the cursor after the line in question and press Ctrl+R , i'll get
the same error message pointing at the last character in the window ( be
it the close bracket on the method or a  /* note */ . anybody got any
ideas ? this has completely stalled my work . please respond by e-mail ,
and , when the solution is uncovered i'll post to the group . thanks in
advance .
