Hello Ken, > I tried what I suggested above and I am extremely surprised. The pointer > remained valid being copied via the overlaying character fields. Well Ken I am glad that I am not loosing what little mind I have left :-) The main reason I went through this exercise was to try to simulate some semblance of object orientation by having externally defined data Structures for the object and then creating instances of them in memory with pointers to other objects contained within... I have some of this working :-) But after Barbara's warning that this is not supported behavior I will have to figure something else out :-( It would be nice to be able to define a pointer data type externally :-) Eric +--- | This is the RPG/400 Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to RPG400-L@midrange.com. | To subscribe to this list send email to RPG400-L-SUB@midrange.com. | To unsubscribe from this list send email to RPG400-L-UNSUB@midrange.com. | Questions should be directed to the list owner/operator: david@midrange.com +---
