Compiler error on wrong line

Hi everyone.

I've just spent the best part of two hours trying to solve this problem
without joy. When I compile my project which has an error in it, the
compiler highlights the wrong line. The same goes for when I use
breakpoints - they do not apply to the line that I have selected. For
example, if I were to highlight the line if filesize > 0 then......,
the compiler would highlight a different line (about 3 lines above the
"proper" line (which may actually be a comment!).

I have tried to copy all of my units into Notepad and then back into
Delphi in order to clear up any loose line breaks/carriage returns but
to no avail. I've also tried Building the project but that has had no
effect either. Basically any advice that has been given pertaining to
this problem on this newsgroup I've tried!

I'm using Delphi 7 on Windows XP Pro. I have also used Delphi 5 on our
college computers at times which also run Windows XP Pro. However,
until now, I haven't had this problem.

I have uploaded my project to www.2312.co.uk/project.rar in case any
kind soul can spare some time to have a look at it and see what I'm
missing!

Any help you can offer will be much appreciated! What a bad time for
Delphi to fail me! This project should have been completed two weeks
ago!!

Thank you very much in advance.
