Need Help with INPUT

[Eddie W. Shore]

I keep getting Error: Invalid Input and I don't get where the error is or what causes it. Does INPUT not work within loops? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Program:

Code:

 EXPORT EXPSMTH()
BEGIN
LOCAL X,A,M,D,S,P;
LOCAL K,C,L1,L2;
// L1: Actual Data, L2: Predictive Data

// Initialize
INPUT({X,A},"INITIALIZE",{"DATA:","ALPHA:"});
L1:={X}; L2:={X}; S:=S+1;

REPEAT
CHOOSE(C, "OPTIONS", "Add Point", "Delete Last Point", "Quit");

IF C==1 THEN
INPUT(X, "NEXT POINT"); // This is where the error points to.  Can't INPUT work with globalize variables? 
L1:=CONCAT(L1, {X});
S:=S+1;
END;

IF C==2 THEN
L1:=SUB(L1,1,S);
S:=S-1;
END;

RECT();
TEXTOUT_P(12,0,"# OF POINTS: "+STRING(S),2);
IF S>1 THEN
P:=L2(1);
FOR K FROM 2 TO S DO
P:=P+(L2(K)-L1(K))*A;
END;
TEXTOUT_P(60,0,"ALPHA: "+STRING(A),2);
TEXTOUT_P(72,0,"PREDICTION: "+STRING(P),2);
END;
WAIT(-1);
UNTIL C ==0 OR C==3;
END;

There may be other issues, but should there not be a THEN after the C==1, similar to the rest of your code?

Thanks - there should be. Typo on my part.

Hello,

Are you sure that the input is the issue?
It looks to me that your textout are problematic
> TEXTOUT_P(12,0,"# OF POINTS: "+STRING(S),2);
should be
TEXTOUT_P("# OF POINTS: "+STRING(S),12,0,2);

Thanks Cyrille! I hope to have the complete program (and it's correct syntax) posted soon.
