Hi

No idea what is that EZYPASCAL exactly, please provide a link to its online documentation if you are aware of any.

In case EZYPASCAL has SysUtils unit, that should contain an [tt]UpperCase()[/tt] function, so :

[b]program[/b] NationalHousingDevelopmentbyAkarieSmith[teal];[/teal]

[highlight][b]uses[/b][/highlight]
  [highlight]SysUtils[teal];[/teal][/highlight]

[b]const[/b]
  Health[teal]=[/teal][purple]930.00[/purple][teal];[/teal]

[gray]{ ... }[/gray]

    [b]Writeln[/b][teal]([/teal][green][i]'Enter ''CL''for Clarendon Courts'[/i][/green][teal]);[/teal]
    [b]Readln[/b][teal]([/teal]Choice[teal]);[/teal]
    [highlight]Choice[teal]:=[/teal][COLOR=darkgoldenrod]UpperCase[/color][teal]([/teal]Choice[teal]);[/teal][/highlight]
    [b]if[/b] [teal]([/teal]Choice[teal])=[/teal] [green][i]'AL'[/i][/green] [b]then[/b]
    [b]begin[/b]

[gray]{ ... }[/gray]

The above suggested modifications work in Delphi/Kylix and FreePascal.

Please choose an Indent style and use it consistently. Next time please post your code between [tt][ignore]

[/ignore][/tt] and [tt][ignore]

[/ignore][/tt] TGML tags.
