Hi pascal.netters.

  From the memory maps in the manuals it looks like the
variables defined in units (both private and public) go
into the code seqment(s) rather than the data segment.

  On the other hand, overlaid units go into the overlay
buffer. 

   Am I correct in assuming that one can define
megabytes worth of variables using overlain units  thereby
surmounting that nasty old 640k barrier for data as well  as
code?
