IMHO, it's silly to define the variables that someone is expected to pass to a prototype. The point behind using things like CONST is that someone can define ANY variable they want, and the compiler will magically convert it for them. > It never occurred to me to use *VARSIZE variables.

There's no such thing as a *VARSIZE variable. *VARSIZE means "don't validity check the length of this parameter -- and if it's const, don't make the temp variable any longer than the one I'm passing in."
