Let f（X） be an additive form defined by f（X）=f（x1. x2,…,xs）=σ1α1x1k+σα2x2k+…+σsαsxsk, where αo≠0 is integer, i=1, 2,…, s. In 1979, Schmidt proved that if ε>0 then there is a large constant C（k, ε） such that for s≥C（k, ε） the equation f（X）=0 has a nontrivial integer solution in σ1. σ2,…σs, x1, x2…,xs satisfying σi=±1 and |xi|≤Aε, i=1, 2.…,s where A=max|ai|. Schmidt did not estimate this constant C（k. ε） since it would be extremely large. In this paper, we prove the following result: Theorem 1 If log A≤1/ε,then C（k,ε）≤max （2/ε,20）; if log A>1/ε,A is sufficiently larye and 1/2A≤5≤|ai|≤A,i=1. 2,…, s, then C（k,ε）≤c1c2p and if the last condition is omitted, then C（k. ε）≤[4/ε]c1c2,where c1={2k+1 for≤k≤11 [5k2log k] for k≥12, c2=100c1k22k+c12 and p=2[log 2c1/ε]. We note that the inequality in the first case is sharp but not in the second case.
