A simple solution which you probably have thought of...
A pdb with multiple records....
Have a fixed no. of bytes in the beginning of the each record which actually
stores the no. of structures that you have in the record.
Caution: A size of a particular record is * a little less * than 64K, so
don't assume you are assured of 64 * 1024 Bytes...
