That actual block of AllocABC() has been called with only 100 elements requested, and appears to pass the initial tests perfectly. Setting up the BITMAP's is relatively easy. there's overhead work with Pallete thats a big pain though! ;-) I've a lot of material to chew on and digest for a while anyways... thanks everybody deeply! I HAVE GOTTEN EXCELLANT idea's, and suggestions since I've asked for help. I WISH TO THANK all who have responded, the good, the bad (sorry, there were some), and superbly awesome ideas! Emails were fascinating too... radsmail AT juno DOT com http://members.tripod.com/~RadSurfer/ On Thu, 29 Jun 2000 22:48:11 -0400, Radical NetSurfer wrote: [snip] > if (Pieces = (BITMAP**)malloc(PUZ_SIZE * sizeof(BITMAP*)))==NULL ) [snip] that line is your problem... Pieces is being assigned 0 everytime, unless you forgot to type a ( in your copying... I don't even think it should compile that way though... Sean ------------------------------ and also ----------------------------- one more thing... why bother with the ALLOC_OK if you're exiting the program before testing even if it isn't?
