I have what appears to be a bug in both TC2.0 and the new BC++. When I use farmalloc((unsigned long)512L*1024L) to allocate a piece of memory of size 512K (or larger), farmalloc *appears* to return a legitimate pointer. However, if I try another farmalloc() and then another and another, they *all* succeed, each returning what appears to be a legitimate pointer. So far, my search of the docs does not say anywhere that farmalloc() is limited to 512K, but that sure appears to be the case. BTW--I am using the huge or compact model, though that shouldn't be the problem. Any advice appreciated. lee
