(I sent this earlier today, but haven't seen it on the list. It's been over 5 hours, so I'm resending. I'm sorry if you end up getting both!)

From the FPC IDE. I have not installed Lazarus at this point.

I'm not sure how to compile from the command line. I'm sorry, I'm a lame Windows person trying to make it in the Linux world, so command line calls aren't second nature to me. I can't even get the mouse to work in the FPC IDE!

So, if you could give me the command I should use to compile, I'd be happy to post the full error message.

Thanks again
Rick

It would be instructive to try and compile from the command-line, this way you'll get the complete error message. In the case of Lazarus, start lazarus from within a console window. The error messages of the compiler and linker will then also be displayed on the console window.

The reason is that the mail also contained an html version. All such mails are held for moderator approval because it stops most spam and viruses (just filtering on list member addresses is not enough, because there have been cases in the past where viruses were sent with the address of a subscriber forged in the from-field).

I don't mind letting such mails through every morning, but when you send such mails there will indeed be a delay before they appear on the list. If you want to turn off html mail, see the following url for how to do that:
