I based my C code on an example in the MSDN library online help. In any
case, it was the Ada compi9ler which gave the error, how was I supposed
to know that the error messages are meant to be the same?

Loads of space and memory.

Two local disks. Does that count? Hold on, I'll try recreating
everything on my c drive... Nope, sorry.

Given that I have tried several different projects on two different
drives, then it is unlikely that this is the case. Of course, the bad
block may be in an ObjectAda executable, but I have been successfully
building other programs which include, for example, an import of a C
system call procedure. But I did run scandisk, and no bad blocks wwere
found.

But thanks for the suggestions.
