Actually, it was well beyond the 64K limit.  I've been using TS4 up until
last weekend -- it was then that I hit the 64K limit again on this new
system.  We decided it was time to make the switch (I'm not using a
real-time feed at this point).

I coded quite a bit more beyond the limit I hit in TS4 before running into
this bug.

Also, my code now is around 1500 lines and seems to operate properly --
it's just that whenever I have to Verify, I have to pull large chunks out
and then put them all back together and Verify again.  It's very tedious
and is a pain to keep large chunks of code totally independent (so they can
be pulled out and still get a verify on the parts).

Thanks for the input,
