| SCO OSR6 - filePro 5.6.02D4

| 
|   *** A filePro Wrror Has Occurred ***
| 
|   Line Number: 21
| 
|   MySocket = socket()
|              ^
|   Process contains a syntax error at position indicated.
| 
| MySocket is properly declared on the table, and the help
| page for SOCKET indicates that family, type and protocol
| are optional arguments and are ignored if given.
| 
| So what could be causing the error?
| 
| That same table on Windows XP Pro and filePro 5.6.01D9
| passes the syntax checker with nary a whimper.

(Corrected typo where I had 4.6.01D9 above.)

I copied the Windows table to my UNIX system where it also
fails the syntax check as described above.
