I've never tried it but what error do you get? define it in the D specs
and use the IN opcode, funny I wouldn't think it was problem either.

Data areas in sub-procedures






AAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH
I've just discovered that you cannot use data areas within

sub-procedures.

I suppose I am just venting after a long and frustrating day, and this is
the straw that broke my back.
Has anyone discovered/invented/found a way around this ?

I suppose that I will have to go back to the drawing board.
