Are there any rumours out there as to when Symantec will have System 7.0
versions of THINK C and THINK Pascal available. I am still using THINK 
Pascal but I am a little uncomfortable with using an application which 
is 90% compatible with System 7.0. I would also like to take advantage
of 32 bit mode and virtual memory. 

I am having a problem with an object variable which suddenly looses 
its identity (i.e. making a method call causes a runtime error) when 
running my program under System 7.0. The same program binary runs fine
on System 6.0.x. I have tried to trace it down but haven't had any luck
as of yet. Do you have to lock an object before making a method call?
I don't believe you do but I may be incorrect. Anyone know? Before 
I go crazy trying to track down this problem, I would like to get a 
hold of THINK Pascal which is 100% compatible with System 7.0 and see 
if the problem persists.
