Pointer in Basic

[OldMoses]

I concur with what everyone else has stated here. Use the _MEM set of commands. They operate very similar to binary files and are a better protected (i.e. less dangerous) way of doing PEEKs & POKEs. There's essentially no chance of "going off the reservation". They can be a bit fussy to use, but worth the effort. Check out Steve's video tutorials on the subject, if you haven't already, that's where I learned them.
