Thank you, problem solved.
Thank you for your reply, there are no header guards in these files. When I wrote it back in 1990 (yes that long ago) it worked fine. It is real K&R code. Unfortunately gcc is not ( correct me if i am wrong) a K&R complaint compiler, so it breaks my stuff. In trying to get it running I but this bug in, addled brain. I am adding the guards having been caught out and then I am now onto next problem [lot of shared memory manipulation]. very many thanks.:):):):study:
