Found another discrepancy between Comet16 and Comet32.
I believe Comet32 is wrong.
I am reading a Comet file that was built from a text file, there's an extra space between some of the fields.
Data look like this:
ABCDE FGHIJ 1 2 3 4 5 6
Usefile looks like this:
Length 3.0 & local ARR(6)
Length 5 & local Arg1$,Arg2$MyData: Format Arg1$,6;Arg2$,6;Arr(1),6*5
Using Comet16, all variables are properly aligned and Arg1$ and Arg2$ have a LEN( ) of 5 (declared length)
Using Comet32, all variables are properly aligned but Arg1$ and Arg2$ now have a LEN( ) of 6, not withstanding the fact that they are declared as 5. If I print those variables, they print as 6 positions.
I believe this is Wrong.
Tested on Comet 16/32 2011.450 and 452.
