BASIC C ---------- ----------- DEF TYPE BasicType struct struct_name { intVar as INTEGER int int_varaiable; longVar as LONG long int long_variable; singleVar as SINGLE float float_variable; dblVar as DOUBLE long float double_variable; strVar as STRING * nn char string_variable [nn]; END TYPE }; TK>Sample of padding for reading C word aligned structs v.s. Basic TYPES Is padding the confusing part or just the munched table above. JF>TK>Hope this helps v.s. confuse.
