So the DPMI memory "server" keeps a track of what I allocate and then when my program quits it clears up after me? >I *think*. Well it sounds ok to me. -- Paul Richards (AKA Pauldoo) EMAIL paul AT dunvegan1 DOT demon DOT co DOT uk FAX +44 (0)870 0522086 HTTP www.dunvegan1.demon.co.uk/paul/ ICQ 14106503
