johnm@cory.BERKLEY.EDU:

  You described of a "Heap sort" using the heap memory (I'd assume I would
have to set the heap up pretty high ( {$M} ).. I know in C you can set
a variable so that it makes itself in the heap storage,, can this be
done in pascal???

	Also: How can a DTA be set up (variables.. offsets, details mon!)
	and how do I read it, is it just a sector read??

thanks again!
