I have been testing D3 V10.3.2 on a test server before moving on from D3 V9.2.2.

All programs must be recompiled when moving to the new version. I have found an issue with the BASIC EXECUTE statement whereby programs using the old style of ,//IN.< would not compile, bombing out with an error instead. Changing the code to the new(ish) style fixed the problem. I have notified Rocket of the issue via our support provider and hopefully, there'll be a fix in D3 V10.3.4.

Good news, Walter. This has been fixed and my extremely cool boss is going to cut a patch. What version of D3 are you using? WHICH CAD in the case will tell us. If you post WHICH CAD here, be sure to remove or obfuscate the D3 System ID.

Oops. That will require a service pack because it's D3 Windows and not Unix. I should have seen that earlier. As you suggest, it will be in some service pack in the future.

Well, Walter, apparently I was wrong ... again!

This patch can be applied to your current 10.3.2 system via a T-LOAD. Interested? Or have you already fixed all of your code?
