Hello all, 

Thanks to Steve, Carol, David Trey and others who replied with advice. It
seems  as though, as most suggested, that some unseen formatting is carried
across with the copy and paste. 

As Steve suggested it may be word wrap which is causing problems. Initial
tests show that this could certainly be the case. So from this lesson it
seems that word wrap should not be applied in the original document before
copying across to the MB compiler.


My original query::


        I have found that when I copy code from other unformatted text
(ASCII)
        documents and paste it into MB and then compile it, it almost
inevitably
        comes up with numerous compiling errors.

        I have discovered that if I painstakingly go through the code and
delete all
        white space and then reinsert it, compiling will be successful.
