SUMMARY
The AllocString library support routine is incorrectly documented on Page 458 of the &quot;Microsoft QuickBASIC for Apple Macintosh: Language Reference.&quot; The documentation incorrectly shows the function prototypes as follows:

Pascal: PROCEDURE AllocString(VAR thestring: SDRECPTR; length: INT16); C: pascal void AllocString(thestring, length); SDRECPTR thestring; INT16 length; These incorrectly show &quot;thestring&quot; as type SDRECPTR, when it should be of the type StringPtr. The correct prototypes are shown below:

Pascal: PROCEDURE AllocString(VAR thestring: StringPtr; length: INT16); C: pascal void AllocString(thestring, length); StringPtr *thestring; INT16 length; This information applies to Microsoft QuickBASIC version 1.00 for Apple Macintosh Systems.
