thanks...it works

Answer 1

[Walter Roberson]

In any list building context,

FUNCTIONNAME (ARGUMENT)

will be interpreted as

FUNCTIONNAME() (ARGUMENT)

Repaired file included.

Answer 2

[madhan ravi]

remove ~ ,~ ,~ ,~ ,~ ,

[Walter Roberson]

No, that wil not work. The code is a function call with a list of indexed output variables. Removing the ~ would put the other variables in the wrong location. It would also not solve the underlying issue which has to do with the difference between

[A, B (D)]

compared to

[A, B(D)]

with the first one being the same as

[A, B(), (D)]

[madhan ravi]

yes sir Walter completely agree
