I am just after a bit of help.

In a program I'm writing, I have a chunk of memory over 1Mb malloced,
with just a standard int ptr pointing to it. Now can I use standard
pointer arithmetic to access that block, or even standard array indicing?
Because I have tried this, and the memory seems to fold back like it can't
handle accessing deep into the big chunk. 
I hope someone can help, as I have spent a week trying to solve this 
frustrating problem.

Thanx in advance,
Kelly.
