Hi Chris,
this sounds very interesting. Sadly I have no idea about all this but this kind of supports my thesis of things being as they are because they are __ As I learned yesterday it is also totally doable to overlap addresses of variables without any complaints. So I guess we have to live with these things in S7. But I also would appreciate any information on this.

So I did find 1 or 2 new codes (WCHAR, for example) but it seems that while INT is supported as Numeric type, SINT and USINT isn’t directly available as code in the S7 protocol. I did some experiments to request SINT as BYTE and that worked, but it sort of feels strange. Anyone else got information on this? Chris
