   TP 5.5 strings are limited to 255 characters. Remember TP 5.5 is from   
   the 1980s, and is for 16-bit DOS.   
      
   > Buffer2: Char[256]; { Char is not a reserved word! }   
      
   Buffer2 : array[ 1 .. 256] of char;   
   or   
   Buffer2 : array[ 0 .. 254] of char;   
   etc

   Considering that TP 5.5 was replaced about 15 years ago...
