Yes; you can work around it by declaring a temp variable, assigning it the value of attachedTo, making whatever modification is necessary, then assigning attachedTo=temp. Do this every time you get that error. You /might/ also be able to just remove the PACKed attribute from the attachedTo field, but that will cause havoc if the struct is supposed to line up with something generated by the card. -- Dan Nelson dnelson_at_allantgroup.comReceived on Fri Dec 17 2004 - 07:15:03 UTC
