The last time I saw the error code 14, it was because the lines of the source file were terminated with only a line feed, not a carriage return and a line feed. Since the BASIC command used to retrieve lines from the input file uses a carriage return code to detect the end of line, the command reads too many characters (>255), and an overflow occurs.
