Mornin' Wayne,
   Why not hang on to 3.5 and just wait for things to catch up?
   This sort of "slinky effect" is a pretty common phenomena in
marketing. One end of the slinky comes to rest while the the other end
has to catch up and eventually go shooting past to who knows where.
Then the process starts all over again. It's as though the compiler is
at one end of the slinky and apps are at the other. If the market is
going to keep growing, then they have to continue to change places in
a somewhat regular, if annoying, fashion. This is, no doubt,
irritatingly off-topic, but I'm on my second cup of coffee and...
well... you know how it is. <g>

Thanks for the suggestions... I've played around with the error checking
for a while, and that DID show me something interesting:
Here are the two variations again: the first one works fine in DOS only,
because under win95 the REG command acts weird. No errors.
SUB SendPacket (CompleteCode%, InUseFlag%)
	Reg 2, 3
	Reg 9, VARSEG(ECBS)
	Reg 5, VARPTR(ECBS)
	CALL INTERRUPT &H7A
	CompleteCode = ASC(ECBS.CompCode)
	InUseFlag = ASC(ECBS.InUse)
END SUB
And here is the second: making use of inline ASM, which should (as far as
I'm aware) be compatible with both DOS and Windows. This works fine in
Win95, but NOT in DOS. when I activate error checking, I DO get errors in
DOS:
SUB SendPacket (CompleteCode%, InUseFlag%)
	plop??=varseg(ECBS)
	plip??=varptr(ECBS)
	! MOV BX,3
	! MOV ES,plop??
	! MOV SI,plip??
	! INT &H7A
	CompleteCode = ASC(ECBS.CompCode)
	InUseFlag = ASC(ECBS.InUse)
END SUB
The last two lines get an error 211: Pointer is Null.
I suppose that I goof up passing the VARSEG and VARPTR variables somehow.
But I fail to see how I _should_ do that, though. And I find it somewhat
odd that this code works just like it should when run from Windows 95.

assistant: From: dnskiesling@telis.org (David Kiesling)
Subject: memory questions
I've been using PowerBasic for some time but never really understood
exactly how memory is structed. I'm very interested. I'm staring at
PowerBasic's FRE function and know it could be of use to me if I
understood memory.
It mentions the stack is used by a program for local variables in
procedures and functions, and that sounds logical to have a separate
defined area of memory for constantly-changing, appearing-disappearing
variables like that. But where is this "stack"? Is it somewhere in the
640k conventional memory? What about string segments? What's up with
those? Is that where all other strings in a program are stored? Do
numeric variables go there too?
What about RAM, and files on the hard disk? How are those structured
and how is stuff stored in those places?
What about static and dynamic variables? How are those stored/used?
If I were to dimension a dynamic string array with each variable
having a maximum (but not fixed) length of 12 (I'm thinking of 8.3
filenames here), how would I be able to tell, before dimensioning the
array, what the maximum number of elements is that I could fit into
memory? (using PowerBasic 3.5)  Then, what about into EMS memory? I
want to think I just multiply the number of array elements by 12 to
get the total memory it would take up, but isn't there a certain
amount of overhead it would use as well?
Thanks for any help!
