[Tiny-cobol-users] test program

[Jim M. <ro...@vi...>]

I am trying to modify the test program test18.cob from the test suite to 
play around with the START command.
However, I have a bug and can't get it to compile.
Its probably some stupid thing I've done, but what is it?

Unbalanced quotation marks is a known problem with TC.

Will have to add better error traps, at a later date.

Thanks.
I never fail to impress myself with my ability to make dumb mistakes.
