   John,   
      
   Borland did not think about the case   
      
            const Mes : set of char = ['W', 'a', 'r', 'n', 'i', 'n','g'] ;   
            begin end.   
      
   to be treated as a string.   
      
   Contrarily to You I am not negative about the posting of frankrubin.   
   I am myself sometimes not a perfect poster.
