"Line too long" Error

Hello,

I am trying to compile a delphi application but am getting error:
"Line to long"(more than 1023 characters).The complier points the
error to a particular line where I make a simple assingment..
Does anyone know why this happens? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Kas.

Re:"Line too long" Error

The "location" of such an error is probably meaningless; it's just where
Delphi gave-up. Look at preceding lines.

Is this "about 1,023 characters from the start of the file?"

Could this file contain (say) LF-only line separators where there should
be CR/LF? For instance?

You've probably forgotten to close a string or
left something out of the syntax

One way of fixing this problem that I've seen reported is to load the pas
file into Notepad and save it. (Make a backup first :)).
