I see why it is not, technically, 64 bit storage. But the program must be AMODE(64) in order to address it. right? And you likely could __NOT__ use it for parms to be passed to other programs or system services, even in AMODE(64). Hum, to me, for me, fairly useless. -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
