Your code:

> writeln (Lst, 'xxx');

Why not replace this fragment with the equivalent 

Title:=Title + copy(Elname,1,8);

or even (for the purists)
Title:=concat(Title,copy(Elname,1,8));

This would put the potentially offending code back in the intrinsic
function department, and that is assumed to be correct ;-).
