Thanks to Mladen and Doug for the boost in the right direction on project linking/compiling. This was my first taste of this part of using Mapbasic.
The scripts, both mine and the ones installed with Mapbasic were all ok, I just hadn't learned about project linking and this must be done from the two compiled code files. It would also appear part of my problem was that I use UltraEdit to create/edit my scripts and also compile from within UltraEdit. And my setup for using UE does not accommodate project linking. Thanks again, you took a big chance, as they say... "Give a man a fish, you feed him. Teach him to fish... Then ya have to teach him to clean it, and then how to cook it."

So, I deleted the stuff and started over with the original unedited source files: LONGLATS.MB DMSCNVRT.MBP DMSCNVRT.MB When I compile, the only thing created is the DMSCVRT.MBO file. I read a similar post some months ago that "Sub Main" must be declared and it is in the DMSCVRT.MB file. What am I doing wrong?
