To generate Indexed files for whatever programs on an IBM PCAT model 3
I used an IBM-Microsoft package called ISAM (Indexed Sequencial Access
Method) that is deliver with an IBM-Microsoft BASIC compiler (an advanced
 one). This compiler and those routines were specifically written for PC XT, I
think. 

The problem is that I keep getting some randoom mistakes (ISAM files system
keep crashing after few hundreds or thousands operations) when my programs
are running. 
Questions (aside from the fact that I may have made those mistakes
 myself) : Is anybody used this package with the ISAM routines and 
if yes, does it runs on AT without problems ?

Thanks for any kind of cooperation,
Jean-Marc Debaud.
