Please specify your problem in some detail, instead of just saying "that did not work". An isolated line of code (a declaration) cannot work, of course. People will try to guess the context, the error message, the compiler used, etc. ad nauseam. In general, one can use 'file of t' where 't' is a type if one is using a standard-conforming implementation which happens to support such files (it need not). One can do Reset, Rewrite, Get, Put, Read, and Write in their simple versions. If you need e.g. random access (you might if you have a database application!), you need some extensions, which tend to depend on the implementation. * Jukka "Yucca" Korpela * Jukka.Korpela@hut.fi * * Manager of User Support * * Helsinki Univ. of Technology Computing Centre, Finland *
