    WOW! Mabey i should call guiness, I bet could get in the book of records for writing a program that gave the most error messages all at once... :-(

    Well, a girl I knew at college holds the distinction of generating 444 lines of error messages by omitting a single full-stop (period, to you colonials) in a COBOL program. Ot was the one that should be right after the

    WORKING-STORAGE SECTION.

    and the poor ole compiler got so confused it just began to spew!
