This append.exe generated errors and shutdown on this Windows 2000.
PPfileio.exe ran OK.
There is a small error in append.asm.
Change:
mov wcnt, fwrite(hFile,ADDR txt,len(txt))
To:
mov wcnt, fwrite(hFile,txt,len(txt))
And build it as a console app and it should work OK. The first version would be correct if txt were a local string, but since it's actually a local dword that contains the address of the string, the ADDR is not correct. See the sas macro in macros.asm.
Michael,
Thanks, I vaguely remember writing the example with "txt" in the data section to get it working then shifting it to the macro "sas" but I apparently did not check the results after.
