Per my last paragraph, I am slugging it out with multiple compiles, correcting items as I go; not unlike typical programming work. This involves almost 1800 lines of code (program + unit), so it feels like my transition TP code is largely working within the FPC domain. I.e., progress is being made. For the present however, I am stopped by a particular compiler-message. The problem line of code is as follows:FUNCTION Prob;

It is the lead line of a function; the only function among many procedures within the unit. The message reads as follows:Syntax error,

: I.e., progress is being made. For the present however, I am : stopped by a particular compiler-message. The problem line of code : is as follows:: FUNCTION Prob;: The compiler expects a type identifier, e.g.,[code]function prog : integer ;[/code]Or real, char, string, boolean or some kind of enumerated type.

Free Pascal may allow a void type. I'm pretty sure that TP does not. Have you tried compiling this with TP?
