Ross, that's C/C++ code, not Delphi.
I'm not quite sure of the Delphi equivalent, but it's basically creating
a type called MyLists which is a pointer to a TStringList.
the MyLists* MyStrings = new Test[10] basically allocates memory to hold
an array of 10 TStringList pointers.
the next part, goes through each element of the array and creates a new
TStringList for each entry of the array.
I hope that helps in some way.
Regards,
Bevan
