Thanks for reporting back on this.

How is this related to 32K character writing? The source and destination strings in my example were all below 256 bytes. I'm asking because I've gotten the problem again in a bigger application but could not extract it into a small test case this time.

So is this going to be fixed or at least checked? It again turned up in an apmost impossible to debug scenario where changing fully-correct code into still-fully-correct-but-differently-looking code made it work, the only change being a change of name to name(1:transfer_end) where name was a parameter of the WRITE function.

Martin has reported that this has been fixed at FTN95 6.10. Which version are you using?

See my later replies, the small test example is indeed fixed in 6.10, larger programs still exhibit the bug.

That's why I guess that

Writing more than 32K characters using the 'A' format gave an "invalid record length" run time error.

may have fixed the small example by accident but didn't touch the real problem.
