If the problem is the alignment, you can try to read element by element. What about using the 'packed' directive ? testData = record testIndex : packed array [0..12] of integer; end; Wouldn't that solve any alignment problems ? Or doesn't free pascal have a 'packed' directive ? Or is it a reallllly strange mac problem ? :) Bye, Skybuck ( Gjez... outlook still uses the wrong default mail account... weird... maybe it s because the mailing list uses my other mail account to sent mail to... ) _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
