Dobbs) Organization: Naval Ocean Systems Center, San Diego Lines: 23 Well, it never fails, or at least it never fails me :-), once a silly question is asked, the answer pops up. I posted questions concerning pulling programs off the net and finding I couldn't run them. Fixed that one by using a few more synapse connections. Capturing files with ST-TALK also captures the command to list the file on the host. Once I stripped the extranious header and footer, the programs ran fine. I also said that some of the programs in the "STARTER KIT" wouldn't run. Fixed that, too. Bad disk drive. Shortly after buying the 520, I bought a second SS drive. It was quieter and had a slightly easier-to-use disk release mechanism. The drive had a wide release button directly under the disk openning. The drive became real flaky lately and was eventually replaced by the retailer. The replacement is the same as the orignal, small button, noisy drive; BUT it works and so do all the programs. Still don't know the answer to my basic question. What is the "Too many FOR loops" error in Atari Basic mean? Disclaimer: Speech for myself, by myself, and of myself. Thanks.
