It does not help in this case. I tried it in vain even before you asked. The error is reported from calc package and not from the emacs lisp interpreter. I believe the cause of the error is determined by the following location. calc.el:2363: (calc-record-why "*Variable is void" (nth 1 err))))) I suppose the issue is in the calc package however the following is my environment which may not be the majority here. -Tak In GNU Emacs 21.2.50.1 (i386-msvc-nt5.0.2195) of 2002-02-09 on TAK_4100 configured using `configure --with-msvc (12.00)' Important settings: value of $LC_ALL: nil value of $LC_COLLATE: nil value of $LC_CTYPE: nil value of $LC_MESSAGES: nil value of $LC_MONETARY: nil value of $LC_NUMERIC: nil value of $LC_TIME: nil value of $LANG: ENU locale-coding-system: iso-latin-1 default-enable-multibyte-characters: t _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
