I can deal with that, by writing a program that precedes assembly and converts all non-comments to upper case into a temporary file for the actual assembly. It will be in effect a CASE IGNORE as opposed to a CASE RESPECT interpretation of the source case. How universally is Assembler H used, particularly in educational instutitions who are a part of the HESC (which appears to include Assembler H on its list)? --Phil howard--
