| I'M NEED HELP WITH WRITING A FILE IN THINK PASCAL 3.0.
| I OPEN THE FILE WITH OPEN(F, TITLE). F IS DEFINED AS A FILE OF INTEGERS.  MY
| PROBLEM IS WITH THE TITLE. I'VE DEFINED IT AS A STRING IN THE VAR SECTION AND
| THE PROGRAM COMPLIES O.K.  BUT I GET A OPER SYS ERROR #-37:BAD NAME(I THINK).
| WHAT ARE THE VALID SYNTAX FOR THIS TITLE.  I'M RUNNING SYS 6.70 ON A MAC SE
| WITH 1 MB. I'M NEW TO THE MAC WORLD--MY IGNORANCE IS A HINDERANCE. I WOULD
| APPPRECIATE ANY HELP. THANKS.
