... but needs alot of work.

I figured out the problem with the runtime error 100. I had created the files it was trying to read with TP6.0.... using files of record types.... so guess what? TP6.0 uses different sized data types!

Actually the program works, but some of the fonts are really messed up (wrong size or wrong face) in graphics mode. What are the differences between TP and FP for fonts?

That also means that you didn't check ioresult after every IO operation. Check out the manual part about "porting from TP" (and/or the page on the website, in the "more info" section), then you can see how to solve this and what other incomptibilities exist.

They should be identical, as long as you use the same .chr files.
