Can you explain what flex strings are, and how they differ from dynamic
and fixed length strings? Could they perhaps be strings with a constant
address in memory space, but with variable length still? (ie, heaps faster
than exhaustively allocating and deallocating memory)
I lost my copy of TRYPB due to HD crash, I can't remember whether that
had online help anyway. :)
