Given ( as an output from err file when i hit shift-! on the lines below ) :
 datatofind = {19,48'0',48'0',124'|',115's',104'h',101'e',5}

Why doesn't this line execute?:
 if find({" 00|"},{data}) then printf(1,"%s\n", {data} ) end if

Or this line:
 if find(" 00|",{data}) then printf(1,"%s\n", {data} ) end if

Or this line:
 if find(" 00|",data) then printf(1,"%s\n", {data} ) end if

Or this line:
 if ( find({" 00|"},{data}) != 0 ) then printf(1,"%s\n", {data} ) end if

Or these lines:
StartOfRec = " 00|"
if find(StartOfRec,data) then printf(1,"%s\n", {data} ) end if

Or any line with {data}/" 00|" written with/without the {}. There is just
nothing, no error, no printing. It traces onto it, then nothing happens on
the other screen when i hit enter.

The symbol there is a double ! in my editor, i get it by ctrl-s on the
keybd.

Kat,
bewildered.
