To answer your question just add
Writeln(lst,'blah','balh');
Don't forget the uses printer clause at the top.

I have a slight problem to. I need to input a string that is
long then 255 characters. It needs to be fairly flexible
because I have to be able to manipulate it easily. Any
Ideas???

Hi,

One thing you could try is making a list of pointers to conventional strings. Deleting and
insterting will be hell. :-)

Another thing you cound do is declaring an ARRAY [1..MaxLen] (in dDos : Maxlen = 64 K)of Chars.
This would use a lot of memory however. TStill : delting and insteriting sub-strings wiill be
hell!

Hope this helps,

Henk Postma,
