Problem:

The following code sample generates the error message "Error 824 --
$large already set":

$LARGE $NOTLARGE A,B
   DIMENSION A(10),B(10)
   END

Response:

Contrary to Page 73 of the "Microsoft FORTRAN Compiler User's Guide,"
a colon is required between the $NOTLARGE and the identifiers that
follow it. When the colon is missing, the identifiers are ignored and
an error is generated. The above code should be changed to the
following:

$LARGE $NOTLARGE: A,B
   DIMENSION A(10),B(10)
   END
