SUMMARY

On Page 372 of the "Microsoft Basic 7.0: Language Reference" manual (for 7.00 and 7.10) the CALL to Makestring needs to have a dollar sign appended to the end of it as shown below.

The following is incorrect:

   PRINT Makestring
                

It should be the following:

   PRINT Makestring$
                

This information applies to Microsoft Basic Professional Development System (PDS) versions 7.00 and 7.10 for MS-DOS and MS OS/2.
