Any advise? And why? You are trying to write to a memory address (that was allocated at position 1) an integer content instead of pointer address. So you need to do the following: iLongRA^[1] := Pos; And then you'll be able to store on cell 1 of the *array* the content of Pos. > > Thanks & best regards, > M.
