Bauldry) Organization: UNC Educational Computing Service Lines: 11 Summary: Master Pointer format query. Having little printed resources available now... Since addresses have jumped to 32 bits how is the master pointer handled (bad pun)? The old format stole the high order byte for flags, i.e. handle locked, etc. Could some kind soul enlighten me and raise my consciousness to the new type ? thanks in advance. Bill
