It sounds like WATCOM 11.0c has a bug, but I've also
seen cases where someone submits a slightly incorrect
program to the translator, and it runs without an error
message because translated code has very few error checks.
The person then runs the program with the interpreter 
and the interpreter catches a small error like type_check
failure. The person corrects the type of a variable
and then discovers that his .exe built from the translator
does not run the same as when he uses the interpreter.
i.e. you might want to delete your result.txt file, rebuild
your .exe and go through it again carefully.
