It's hard to tell from the code you've posted, because the line numbers
have changed, suggesting you've made changes above these lines, which
are probably the cause of your problem. Looking at your code, however,
and extrapolating to what your code probably looks like now, my guess is
the parse error you're getting has to do with you grouping two
statements under an 'if' block without {}'s telling the 'if' what
belongs to it and what doesn't. Both the issues you've had would be
dealt with in a C or C++ book; they aren't Palm OS specific issues.

Subject: Re: StrCopy Problem
Yeah..i thought that too..but when i compile
Line 49: StrCopy(tempdata, no);
Line 50: else if (SysAlarms == 1)
I get a parse error for this line.
frmMain.c:50: parse error before `else'
But, to me, it looks like I did everything right.
