This is not likely to be a problem as "x" is probably a temporary fvariable, and
use of "@" and "!" will not cause memory problems. The problem with the variable
"d1" from your earlier message is serious. I'm looking back through the original
BASIC sphagetti to find the source of that problem. Thanks!
