Farpointer is to support mem[] and ptr(seg,offset)^ to access the real mode memory. The type is incompatible with Pointer so you can't accidently use Move() etc. You need the special functions from go32 to access the real mode memory. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
