We have a line of code that is generating a 'missing operand' error: \\<> If we code a 'suspend' in * before * the above line and then run from the debugger window, the error does not occur. We have tried placing the next 2 lines before the offending line with no success. Clear TypeAhead Inkey(2) In the back of my mind I seem to remember having the same problem with another line of code and found the solution here at the UT. Can anyone offer any direction? TIA.
