In NumberFormatting.p procedure NumToString(theNum: SInt32; var theString: Str255); external name '_NumToString';

You're using the wrong set of Mac OS X Pascal Interfaces here. Your cite is from FPC's FPCPInterfaces Mac OS X Pascal Interfaces. Only GPC's GPCPInterfaces Mac OS X Pascal Interfaces work correctly for GPC compiling.

I was in fact using the correct ones, but had both open in BBEdit and copied the wrong one for the email

What do I need to do in this case?

First, when you ask for help you should post a complete example.

I agree and I intend to do better next time.

Since this is really a Mac OS X Pascal Interfaces type problem, it would probably be better to seek help for questions like this on the MacPascal mailing list instead of this mailing list. You have a much better chance of getting faster help with Mac OS X interfacing problems and the reponders will be tailoring their help to a Mac OS X Pascal context. snip>

Ok, shall do.

Thx for the help everyone. Got it compiling now and am sorting through the String manipulation issues keeping the GPCStrings as much as possible.

Ken

same maximum character capacity as the fake "string" record type has. The StringXX types are declared in the GPCStrings unit's interface.
