Error# 23 Line buffer overflow. An attempt has been made to
input a line that has too many characters.

Error# 66 Direct statement in file.
This is usually caused by a line in an ascii file which lacks
a line number.

Sorry to say I can suggest no remedy for either except that there
are GWBasic programs available which will read in a binary file
and convert it to a numbered series of DATA lines.
You can find one such program listed in:-
"Basic Programming Inside and Out" by H.J.Bomanns.
ABACUS (Data Becker). ISBN 1-55755-084-0.
