Thanks for the information. Now that I understand the problem, I found
the information in my manuals. That's always the problem I have - you
have to know where to look. I had used a fixup by creating my own
inc_far_pointer function using FP_SEG and FP_OFF, but huge pointers are
much simpler. Thanks again
