Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Geoff,
"the workaround will be to avoid an assignment in the ELSE portion of a single line IF statement."
Just to clarify, the problem (in this case) is not in the ELSE portion.
It is when there is a GoTo Label or GoSub label in the THEN portion with a following ELSE.
Look forward to 4.0
Cheers,
Anthony.

I'm on V3.2C as well and had the same problem a couple of weeks ago with an IF... GoSub and Else line. I assumed it was my crappy programming skills! I also fixed it by getting rid of the one-line IF and going with the multi-line one.

For V3.2C users - I fixed the WAIT1, WAIT2 & WAIT3 as per above suggestions. There are two more statements to be fixed though in CHGDIR: and CHA: as shown below (the problem lines start with ***).
CHGDIR:
If vp=2 Then GoTo CHA
If Ldir$(2,tag)="" Then error=1:GoSub COMERR:GoTo LCURSOR
If Ldir$(1,tag)<>"*D" Then tag=tag+1:GoTo CHGDIR
***If Ldir$(2,tag)=".." Then GoSub CHC Else Lpath$=Lpath$+Ldir$(2,tag)+"\"
Chdir Lpath$:GoSub LUPDATE:cl=1:GoTo LCURSOR
CHC:
Lpath$=Left$(Lpath$,Len(Lpath$)-1)
If Right$(Lpath$,1)<>"\" Then GoTo CHC
Return
CHA:
If Rdir$(2,tag)="" Then error=1:GoSub COMERR:GoTo RCURSOR
If Rdir$(1,tag)<>"*D" Then tag=tag+1:GoTo CHGDIR
***If Rdir$(2,tag)=".." Then GoSub CHD Else Rpath$=Rpath$+Rdir$(2,tag)+"\"
Chdir Rpath$:GoSub RUPDATE:cr=1:GoTo RCURSOR
As Anthony said:
"the bug only seems to occur when an: IF - THEN - GOSUB (or GOTO) - ELSE sequence tries to execute"

Thanks paceman.
Version 4.0 is just around the corner. Everyone who at least has 3.2C should upgrade to it when it's available. I've no problems with 4.0 beta 9 on my original Maximite.
