This feels like a design blunder resulting from haste to deliver. The sort that's orders of magnitude more costly to recover from in GA than in development. I could even envision a bizarre compatibility accommodation in which all the parameter values are below-the-line and bits 32-63 of GR1 address a 31-bit plist and the entire GR1 addresses a 64-bit plist referring to the same below-the-line valuse/ -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
