Ok.  I invite "Endlisnis" to point me to the "variable containing the
address of the function".  Get a clue before posting "corrections."

The code from which this was extracted, in which PrintMode[01] are
member functions and not variables:

#include <stdio.h>

class Test
{
    int testint;
    void (Test::*PrintPtr) ();
     public:
     Test(int in_testint) {
        testint = in_testint;
     } 
     void SetMode(int mode) {
        if (mode == 0)
            PrintPtr = &PrintMode0;
        if (mode == 1)
            PrintPtr = &PrintMode1;
     } 
     void PrintMode0() {
        printf("mode 0: %d\n", testint);
     } 
     void PrintMode1() {
        printf("mode 1: %d\n", testint);
     } 
     void Print() {
        (this->*PrintPtr)();
     }
};

int main()
{
    Test test1(10);
    test1.SetMode(0);
    test1.Print();              // This should print 10
    return 0;
}
