That's OK. I was just having a bad morning. I'm all better now I've got my
caffeine fix.
You do have to admit though, that many of the posts that go
#define SafeUlgyDmWrite(a,b,c,d)
{MemPtrDataStorage(a)?DmWrite(a,b,c,d):MemMove(a+b,c,d);}
What I really needed was MemPtrDataStorage() and
MemHandleDataStorage()! Comming from DOS/Windows/Mac I woudln't have
hoped for the existence of such functions. Memory is memory to me.

My advice: Relax and don't worry about the tone of each and every post.
There is nothing you can do about it other than get in a pointless
argument. Be thankful that there are guys out there like Ben, Keith,
Aaron, etc.
Now, *this* is advice I like! To it, I should add Even if using
DmWrite works on non-storage heap memory now, there's nothing that
says it won't in the future.
Nice to see I'm not completely full of bad ideas Mind you, I'm surprised
