Hi

In the first email the problem centers around "packed" and I don't know what's it doing.

In the 2nd email, 4 followed by 9 zeros as an integer is a negative number, -294967296

Without typecasting the comparisons are expecting integers So if you change X in the comparisons to longint(X) you get the right results

Perhaps this narrows the problem a little

Hello The thing I don't understand is the output : X = 4000000000 X > 63 : False but it doesn't really matter : the input was wrong, since it was out of range [0..125]. But about the packed type, I found another problem. I can't compile this little program : -------------------------------------------- Program Bug05; Const XValMax : Byte = 125; Type T_XVal = Packed 0..XValMax; Var X : T_XVal = 64; Begin End. -------------------------------------------- Here is the output : Reading specs from c:/djgpp/lib/gcc-lib/djgpp/2.952/specs gpc version 20000727, based on 2.95.2 19991024 (release) [...] Bug05.pas:8: constant out of range -- "Couperin"
