410REM Lines 30 & 40 work together to
Center the programme but unfortunatly
generates two Spurious Characters ( aE )
on the First line and line 50 absorbs it
so please cut it off your printout
420REM The one fault is that the
canceling statement VDU1,27,1,97,0 will
not cancel the centering statement so
if you find out please let me know the
result --- Fred Price.
