Text appears to be inserted randomly. lazarus / 9-Editor ---------------------------------------------------------------------- jack · 2012-03-03 22:34 It may be me but from time to time as I work, a unit will not compile or behave erratically.  I find little snippets of my own code in strange places in the source. It may be after I move stuff around with cut and paste. I am not sure. Just saying! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- User137 · 2012-03-04 00:59 Crystal ball is lost again  Which fpc and lazarus version, and operating system do you have? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- jack · 2012-03-04 01:23 Sorry Crystal, Windows XP 32bit Lazarus 0.0.30 2011.03.08 FPC 2.4.2 SYN Rev 29749 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- User137 · 2012-03-04 07:18 Well, those versions seem so old that they're propably not even supported anymore. You can try getting latest from Daily Snapshots link at: http://www.hu.freepascal.org/lazarus/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Carver413 · 2012-03-04 07:33 maybe your file system is corrupted that could cause strange behaviour. I had an old hard drive that would start messing up when it was near full.
