Wow, this topic sparked a lot of interesting conversation!  I thought
I would report that I do have the code working now thanks to the
advice in this thread.

Adam,

Thank you for catching that my mistake, the casting did the trick.


Peter,

Thanks for the tips.  I will look into Sequential_IO, I somehow missed
it and thought that is what Direct_IO was for.  I need to go back and
review the different Ada file processing packges.
