> When should one not mark a TEXT segment as MOVEABLE or > MOVEABLE DISCARDABLE The only reason I can think of not making code MOVEABLE is if you have an interrupt vector into said code (not really a good idea under Windows, but people have their reasons...) The only reason for not making code DISCARDABLE is for handling out of memory errors. --Bill Turner (bturner@hp-pcd.hp.com) HP Interface Technology Operation

Hi. You should mark as FIXED only the segments that contain filters. or use interrupt vectors. I also found that if you are using large model all segments must be FIXED other wise the system crashes. But in medium or small model I have used all segments MOVEABLE even the filters. With no trouble. The docs say that only filter procedures must be fixed. Alfredo
