What have I done wrong NOW?

[ROBIN MARSTRAND]

Hello again, fellows.

I wonder if anyone can throw light on this ERROR. I keep getting errors of
one kind of another relating to Stimulus:-

ERROR -- ANALOG .STIMULUS definition found, DIGITAL definition expected for:

ERROR -- ANALOG .STIMULUS definition found, DIGITAL definition expected for:

I'd be grateful to know how to avoid these errors - it's very frustrating.
And I find it diffcult to believe that it is my fault, entirely - meaining;
their should be a better indication within ther program of what path to take
when setting up a stimulus. I read the manuals avidly but am able to forget
some areas when moving on to others!

F1 pressed with ERROR selectied seldom helps.

Best, robinease.

Best, robinease.

Here's one I just made up using the Stimulus Editor as opposed to your
hand-written file.

You failed to declare a *SOURCE* name. Compare line by line....
